Welcome Smart Marriages!
Christian PREP, Inc. is pleased to announce this prayer
journal, Like a Tree Planted by Water.

While not a full curriculum, this prayer journal can be
used "out-of-the-box". It can be
used without any training, and apart from --or along with-- any marriage education
curriculum. This journal can be
purchased and used by individuals or it can be purchased by marriage education
leaders to use along with whatever curriculum they are teaching.
From the introduction:
This prayer journal for your marriage is about building your marital
relationship on the strongest possible foundation:
God's love for you and your mate. In the course of this journal, you will
be asking for a change in your marriage from the inside out.
Whether you are happy or unhappy with your relationship, there are
powerful possibilities to be unlocked.
The journal is for you and your prayer life.
Although the journal can be used by you and your mate at the same time,
you should each have your own journal.
Even if your spouse is not ready to start journaling at this time, you
can work through the journal and make a difference in your marriage.
This journal is designed to help you invite God to take part in your
relationship and to invite Him to lead you on a path of growth and development
in your marriage. The journal covers 12 important areas of your relationship.
Every area begins with a few conceptual seeds that are rooted in
scripture, and that can branch out into multiple areas of your life.
You can nurture these seeds and help them grow.
If they fall on fertile ground in your life, they may start small, and
yet blossom to yield 100-fold.
The prayer journal was developed by Christian PREP, Scott
Stanley, and the ProSAAM team, led by Steven Beach and Tera Hurt, that is
conducting research on using prayer in marriage education at the University of
Georgia.
Available Spring 2009.
If you would like to be notified by email when copies of the journal can
be ordered, please send an email to
info@PREPinc.com and put "prayer journal" in the subject line.
The journal will be sold singly, or in packages of 10.
