I am an active member of the Church, my husband is not a member and does not ever intend to become one. As such the first thoughts that came to mind are as follows:
Do not pressure your wife into anything.
Talk to her about i; how you are an inactive member and would like to get involved again and why. Let her know your feelings. Invite her to join you at Church, but take it slow. If you overwhelm her with prayer and scripture study and tithing and all that jazz she will likely put on the breaks.
She may be interested or she may have no interest whatsoever which is okay. Her thoughts and feelings on the subject are as valid as yours even if it turns out to not be the same. Let her know that it's all right if she feels it's not for her but ask her to support you regardless.
Before approaching her, I would pray. Ask for guidance regarding when to approach your wife, how to approach her, what to say to her and the timing involved and when to simply listen.
Whatever the outcome is you can still have a great marriage.
