The trials and pressures of modern life can make the prospect of a fulfilled, meaningful marriage seem impossible. In The Power of a Praying Wife, popular Christian author and speaker Stormie Omartian pinpoints common marital struggles and reveals the miraculous way that disciplined prayer can alleviate heartache and sustain unity. According to Omartian, a marriage's success depends upon "laying down all claim to power in and of yourself, and relying on God's power to transform you, your husband, your circumstances, and your marriage." Omartian attributes the success of her own 25-year marriage to dedicated prayer for every area--however specific--of her husband's life; from his finances and his work to his integrity and his temptations. Each chapter offers insight into areas that are especially important to men, followed by "power tools" (inspiring, topical Scripture) to guide one's prayer life and transform a woman's mind with regard to her husband. This practical read will encourage women to trust God to change their spouse, and undoubtedly refocus one's perspective on God's power rather than one's own personal predicament. --Jill Heatherly

 Good focus -easy to read July 10, 2008
This is a good book with short chapters that are easy to read and apply. It helps you to focus of praying for your husband in every aspect of his life such as his mind, reputation, safety, health, etc. It has definitely stretched me and help me pray specifically for aspects of my husband's life that I never prayer for in the past. We are using this in a women's small group Bible study in conjunction with the workbook (but not using the videos).
 Another great book from Stormy Omartian July 3, 2008
This is a great book! It features several chapters with teaching on each facet of a husband's life and suggested prayers at the end of each chapter. It goes a long way to demystify a man's world for a wife and help her break out of interpreting his behavior in the light of her own context instead of his.
Just what I needed June 12, 2008
I recently purchased this book finally after being told by several of my friends that it's an awesome book. I have really enjoyed it so much and I especially love the prayers it suggests to pray. It's definitely worth your money because it's a book that you will always have at your bedside.
The MUST HAVE book for every wife June 3, 2008
Stormie has an incredible gift of explaining the wife's place in a marriage as well as how to enhance our husbands by prayer. Her gift of words during prayer have taught me how to have more powerful prayers, but more importantly put a greater priority on prayer in my marriage.
Since reading this I have purchased a half dozen or more to hand out to friends. We almost have a club going for down times! Sometimes the book gets put away when given...then out of the blue the person sees it on the shelf...after years of having it, RIGHT WHEN THEY NEED IT their eye catches it.
I highly recommend this as a gift to yourself to your friends or even as a study for a women's small group. It has put a happy face on many of a cranky lady ... perspective, ya know!
Wonderful Book of Prayers May 31, 2008
I love this book. The prayers express the unconditional love of a wife. The author also relates the prayers to her own personal experiences with her husband. It has helped me to have faith in the power of prayer when my marriage was in crisis. I also purchased the audio CD to listen to while driving. I would choose the book over the CD because you can pick it up at any time to seek a particular prayer. This book would be a great gift for a Christian Bride
