Marriage Prayer Journaling: How Writing Your Prayers Will Change Your Life

Many couples want a deeper prayer life but struggle to stay focused, honest, or consistent. Thoughts wander. Emotions feel hard to express. Words come out rushed or repetitive. Over time, prayer can begin to feel disconnected — even when the desire for closeness with God and each other is still there.

In this episode of The Praying Couple® Podcast, Mike and Carlie explore the often-overlooked spiritual discipline of prayer journaling and why writing your prayers can be a powerful way God brings clarity, healing, and transformation to both individual hearts and marriages.

This is not about being poetic, organized, or good at journaling (although those are amazing by-products). It’s about slowing down long enough to be honest before God, remember His faithfulness, and invite Him into the places that are easy to suffer silently.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why Scripture places such a strong emphasis on remembering and writing
• How prayer journaling helps quiet scattered thoughts and deepen focus
• Why writing your prayers can reveal what’s really happening in your heart
• How journaling shapes humility, trust, and spiritual awareness over time
• Ways couples can use prayer journaling individually and together
• What to write when you don’t know how to pray or what to say
• How written prayers become testimonies of God’s faithfulness

If prayer has felt rushed, repetitive, or hard to articulate, this episode offers a gentle invitation to slow down and meet God in a quieter, more reflective way. Writing your prayers doesn’t make them more spiritual — it makes them more honest. And honesty is where transformation begins.
