Welcome to my stop in Author Marilynn Dawson‘s virtual book tour for her next book, “A Year in Prayer With Jesus”. Today we feature a how-to video that Marilynn did that guides you through suggested best practices in making the most of this very unique book. “A Year in Prayer with Jesus” is a thought provoking daily devotional using “The Lord’s Prayer” as a springboard for study of the entire Bible & prayer for the whole world.
We are planning to start using this with our family this year. “The Lord’s Prayer” is broken up into seven points. Each point has a related scripture verse and a short, simple prayer prompt. With this outline, our family will:
The book is all encompassing. The scriptures are all included in the text (KJV) plus room for notes, making it over 750 pages. I do intend to have the children look up the scriptures. There are just enough for our family to have one verse each and one “leader” to read the prompts. I am really looking forward to using this book in our family devotions this year.
Here’s a little video showing how this study works:
- Get to know more about our Creator.
- Pray for people around the world.
- Learn His will for our lives.
- Petition Him with Scripture.
- Consider His view of sin; learning how and why we should seek forgiveness & forgive others.
- Be challenged in our personal growth.
- Express true gratitude and submission; acknowledging His awesome authority.

I had a few questions for Marilynn. I thought you all might be interested as well.
How did you get from”solid Christian home” & “receptionist work and Comptia A+ computer repair” to “numerous unpublished articles on end-time eschatology, written unpublished short stories, word studies and more”?
lol, that question makes me chuckle. The writing actually occurred concurrently with the work. It would be engaged in “after hours” or “after the kids went to bed” or between tech calls while working piece-meal for an international techsupport company. In fact, much of the writings on end-time eschatology and the word studies happened during the international subcontrating stint.
What does the ” fa-ct ” mean in your site url? (http://songdove.fa-ct.com)
fa-ct is the acronym that spawned my own techsupport business back in 2001. It stood for “Financial Advisor’s Computer Tech”. That was the industry I was working in at the time I branched out on my own, and for awhile, that industry did become the bulk of my clients.
