My fiancé seems not to enjoy praying with me. Whenever we fix a particular time for prayer chain, he complains of tiredness and even sleeps off most times. I can't keep dragging him to pray, he should take his place as the head. Its annoying and i'm getting tired of encouraging him because it appears he's not improving.

You need to hear his own side of the matter. Is the time chosen convenient for both of you? You may even ask him to suggest a time when he is sure he will be available. What is his spiritual background like? Does he have spiritual role models or mentors? Does your pastor know him and has he counselled both of you before? You may want to start giving him little prayer tasks if you doubt his spiritual maturity; ask him to pray for you or anybody else facing challenges while you say Amen in agreement. Ask him to pray on food, drinks etc before you eat. Is he comfortable with praying with you alone? Observe him during church programs and see his attitude or reactions. You may also need to include a short bible study or other activities such as spiritual topics and discussions so that your prayer times don't get boring. Don't give up. if your relationship is worth it, the sacrifice will also be worth it. God will help you.
