Couples Who Pray Book

In Couples Who Pray, Squire Rushnell and Louise Duart challenge readers to take a 40 Day Challenge to pray together with their better halves. The book opens to explain that praying together is the most intimate act a couple can share. The authors share their personal memories and parts of their lives, and those of other couples that have taken the challenge together.  It helps show how beneficial this love and doing is to a relationship. The book offers easy and to the point rules to get you started and only you can really pick the direction your prayers will go together. This is not some perfect list of instructions that has 40 daily prayers that follow them. This is a book designed to encourage you to try the challenge, regardless of your self-consciousness and fear. All of the stories from others lives are there to show inspiration to you to help get you started. We were happy this book wasn't a do this now before you can move on, but more of a general motivation and encouragement for us. The appendix did offer great Bible verses that could easily be used for those that want more support. This was an amazing book that has worked in not only mine but my friends and families lives too.
