What do you do when God is calling you to revival, but your spouse isn't there yet? Maybe he doesn't believe, or maybe he's skeptical about faith. I used to hide my Bible when my husband was home. I wouldn't pray out loud or play worship music because I was afraid of confrontation—afraid I might lose him over this.

We ended up talking about something we never planned to discuss: how to carry prophetic authority in your home when you're the only believer.
