About The Book
A Prayerful Life
Prayer isn’t just a practice. It’s a lifeline.
In A Prayerful Life, Evangelist Dr. Evon McMurry opens the door to a deeper, more intimate relationship with God, one rooted in honesty, humility, and quiet strength.
This isn’t a book of formulas. It’s a living guide woven from decades of real-life experience, late-night prayers, spiritual breakthroughs, and the whisper of God's voice. You’ll walk with Dr. McMurry through the pages of her childhood, where a frightened little girl found peace by whispering, “Jesus, take away my fear.” You’ll see the woman who became a spiritual warrior shaped by fasting, faithful obedience, and steady hope.
From personal prayer to intercession, from spiritual warfare to corporate worship, Dr. McMurry walks you through every layer of prayer with the warmth of a friend and the depth of a teacher. Her story is not about religious performance. It’s about relationships.
And throughout this journey, she honors the people who helped shape her voice:
- Shelia DeGruy, to whom this book is lovingly dedicated a mentor, a sister in Christ, and a prayer warrior who helped ignite the fire.
- David Anthony Taylor, her cousin, helped bring the book to life visually. Her children have stood beside her in prayer and belief.
- Bishop Ray Ross reminded her of what prayer can unlock. And her family, who believed in her before the world ever saw her calling.
If you’ve ever longed to hear God’s voice as clearly as a friend’s... this book is for you.
