Praying for Your Future Husband by Robin Jones Gunn & Tricia Goyer

The perfect pair for this book. Praying for Your Future Husband features Robin Jones Gunn and Tricia Goyer at their best.

Gunn is known for her books on girl(ish) stuff and Goyer for her excellent motherhood observations. Both are influential for a young girl's life.

This book gives advice on how to pray for the husband who is waiting for you.

Does this book promote the idea that marriage is better than singleness?

This question and many others are answered in 12 chapters on how to pray. Ladies are encouraged to pray for:

His Heart
He will be a God Lover
Patience
Understanding
Trust
Loyalty and Faithfulness
Strength
Protection
Intimacy
"The List"
Contentment
Commitment

Rounding out the book is a closing thought by both authors.

Each chapter has contributions from Gunn and Goyer. You will know who says what. You could even skip the parts that you don't want to read.

The way this books is written, anyone (even this guy) can feel encouraged to pray for people who aren't a part of their lives yet...
