New Podcast: Are You Praying for Your Spouse—or Trying to Change Them? What if praying for your spouse isn’t about changing them—but about trusting God with them? We’ve probably all prayed some version of, “Lord, please change this person!” And if we’re being honest, we’d prefer He do it quickly! This week on The Father’s Business Podcast, we’re continuing our For the Family series with a conversation about praying for your spouse without turning prayer into a way to control the outcome. We’ll talk about why conflict often reveals deeper wounds, how our prayers can expose what’s happening in our own hearts, and what it looks like to truly bless the people we love. We’ll also share practical, Scripture-based ways to pray for your spouse—and four questions that may change how you approach prayer in your closest relationships. Whether you’re married or not, these principles apply to the people God has placed in your life. Our encouragement this week? Pray. Love. Own your part. Release the rest to God. Listen to Episode 323: Praying for Your Spouse Without Trying to Change Them We hope this conversation helps you experience more freedom in prayer and greater trust in the God who loves the people you love.
