Hi, Jim Daly here. Today's cultured deeply needs help, but in times like these, the light of Christ can shine even brighter.

So be encouraged to share his light in this broken world. Listen to the refocus with Jim Daly podcast.

Without time limitations, I'll have deep heartfelt discussions with fascinating guests who will encourage you to share God's grace, truth and love.

Check out the podcast at refocuswithjimdaly.com or wherever you get your podcasts.

So we might not be intentionally saying, okay, bow your head, we're going to pray. But as we're talking about ways we can grow in love, we can grow in support.

We can reflect this covenant of love that God loved us first and we're only loving because He loved us.

I think He can receive that as a prayer and I think God can work in our marriages.

This is Focus on the Family with Jim Daly and our guest today is Jody Burnt describing ways that you can pray more frequently and more effectively in your marriage.

Thanks for joining us. I'm John Fuller.

John, it's so great to have Jody back. We had a wonderful conversation last time. We discussed how praying the scriptures for your spouse is a vital element to your marriage.

I think even within the Christian community, we don't value it as much as we need to. We touched on how to do that when personalities are different.

You know, you have introvert extrovert. Maybe the husband is a little uncomfortable. Maybe the wife is a little uncomfortable.

Whatever it might be and she gave some great examples of how to work through that and still pray together.

Today we're going to discuss how to pray over your finances, your service to one another.

Let me say that again to the husband. Your service to one another and also praying through both the joys and the trials that come into life.

It's going to be a great discussion.

We'll be in if you missed part one, stop by our website. We've got the link in the show notes and you can find out more about it.

You can watch it right here on YouTube or you can download the podcast and listen through your podcast app.

Jody Burnt is a public speaker, a Bible teacher and the author of a bestselling series of books praying the scriptures.

She's added to that series with a brand new book called praying the scriptures for your marriage.

It's a very practical scripture infused book and a lot of great marriage advice along the way as well.
