Prosecutors say Dr. Mark Wangler didn't want a divorce because it would have crippled him financially and hurt his status at his church.
His wife was found dead in their home in 2006.
The Lima News reports that jurors took about nine hours before convicting him Wednesday.
An Allen County judge then sentenced Wangler to life in prison with parole eligibility after 25 years.
