The deepest intimacy in a marriage is not physical. It is spiritual, and it grows through prayer! Welcome our special guests, Colin & Nancy Millar!

------------------
In this episode of Love Letters with Jason and Ros, we had an inspiring conversation about "P" for prayer as a priority in marriage! We had an amazing time sitting down on location in San Marcos with our longtime friends and prayer ministry co-laborers, Colin and Nancy Millar of Igniting Prayer Action. They happily shared with us what 41 years of marriage and a life of prayer have taught them.

WE COVER:

• The Millars' love story, from a delayed flight in Dallas to a teddy bear named Zach, and why we say God's delays are for a greater way!
• Why prayer matters in marriage, both individually and collectively, and the Holy Spirit’s role in it all.
• Why spiritual intimacy is the deepest connection a husband and wife can share.
• Candid and faith-filled Millar stories like:
  • “When a delayed flight in Dallas, a teddy bear, and two months of dancing date nights turn into an “I Do.”
  • “The heavy foot, the prayer, and the speeding ticket.”
  • How "We've become two units."
  • Why listening to our spouse matters, and what waiting on God does for our prayer life.

THIS WEEK’S “LIVE OUT YOUR LOVE LETTER" CHALLENGE:
If you and your spouse haven’t been praying together, start small.

• Try a short morning prayer, even just 10 to 15 seconds with a kiss and a simple hug prayer such as, "Lord, bless my spouse to have an amazing day."
• Then pick up the book Waiting on God by Andrew Murray, a great resource to help you grow your prayer life (link below).
