01
Before you begin
Choose a time when you can be present. Put away notifications, agree that either person may pause, and keep this exercise separate from an urgent argument. There is no score and no requirement to finish.
02
Try the practice
- Pray privately or ask permission before praying aloud for a sensitive topic.
- Pray for one burden, one strength, and one hope.
- Do not use prayer to preach, correct, expose, or pressure your spouse.
03
One question to carry
- What blessing can I ask God to bring into my spouse’s week?
Finish with grace. Thank each other for showing up. Choose one small way to carry the connection into the next day.
Safety first. Do not use a joint exercise where there is fear, violence, coercion, surveillance, or sexual pressure. Find confidential help →
