Description
you will bear much fruit.”
John 15:5
While on earth, Jesus frequently encouraged His followers to trust and draw near to Him. Jesus extends that same invitation to us today, and there is nothing more important than knowing Jesus and being known by Him. When you are close to God, you can know better how to live.
Anchored in Jesus explores what it means to have a living relationship with Christ—and how that is the key to growing strong as a believer. As you explore who Jesus is and what He has done for you, the Lord will work in your life so that you reflect His character more and more. You “bear much fruit” when you live closely to Jesus and exhibit the same kind of love, joy, peace, patience, faithfulness, and self-control He modeled.
Anchor yourself in Jesus…and let Him transform you.
Advance Praise
“Our world is filled with storms. Turbulent problems assail the lives of many. In the midst of these storms, you need an anchor that can give you stability. Jesus is that anchor. He empowers and emboldens all who trust in Him. In Anchored in Jesus, veteran pastor Johnny Hunt shows us how to find firm footing in any instable environment. I highly recommend this book.”
—Steve Gaines, PhD, Pastor, Bellevue Baptist Church, Memphis
“My dear friend Johnny Hunt has written a book on Jesus from his heart, not his head. In these days filled with storm and strife, waves and wind, we all need an anchor that will hold. This book will not only anchor you to Jesus but the real Jesus—not the Jesus of Hollywood but heaven; not the cultural Jesus but the biblical Jesus; not the Jesus many want Him to be but the Jesus we all need Him to be. Whether you are in a storm, going into a storm, or coming out of a storm, you need to read this book!”
—James Merritt, Pastor, Cross Pointe Church, Duluth, GA, author of 52 Weeks with Jesus
“Johnny Hunt is a walking illustration of the transforming life of Jesus Christ. The very title of this book, Anchored in Jesus, personifies his life story and the living legacy of his testimony. To this day, through his writing, speaking, and leading, Johnny motivates thousands upon thousands of people to win with Jesus daily. Get this book, read it, and share another copy with a friend!”
—Dr. Ronnie Floyd, President/CEO, Southern Baptist Convention Executive Committee
“It is fitting that Johnny Hunt would write a book entitled Anchored in Jesus because that is exactly where he has been through the decades I have known and loved him. These words are not just some type of theoretical treatise but have been practically beaten out on the anvil of his personal experience.”
—O.S. Hawkins, President/CEO, GuideStone Financial Resources
“I am always blessed and encouraged by the teaching ministry of my dear friend Johnny Hunt. This book does that once again. Anchored in Jesus teaches us just how all-sufficient and wonderful our Savior is. This book will stir your heart and inspire a greater passion for King Jesus.”
—Danny Akin, President, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, Wake Forest, NC
“Pastor Johnny Hunt has always been about Jesus! I am thankful for his latest book, Anchored in Jesus, which reminds us that Christ is enough and He still is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. May this book ignite our hearts like the disciples who walked the road with Jesus, saying, “Did not our heart burn within us while He talked with us on the road…?” (Luke 24:32). You can hear His voice as you read this book: ‘You are anchored in Me!’”
—Jeff Crook, Pastor, Christ Place Church, Flowery Branch, GA
“In this topsy-turvy world, everyone needs an anchor as the winds and waves of life howl about us. My friend and beloved brother in Christ shares why an anchor is critical, but even more critical, why that anchor must be Jesus. Johnny eloquently describes how ‘the peace that surpasses understanding’ can only be found moored to the anchor secured by none other than the Creator of those winds and waves.”
—Sonny Perdue, United States Secretary of Agriculture
“Pastor Johnny has mentored thousands of pastors, including me, in what it means to serve Jesus as a faithful shepherd. You won’t find a man in our generation more committed to God’s Word, God’s people, and God’s Great Commission.”
—J.D. Greear, PhD, Pastor, The Summit Church, Raleigh-Durham, NC, President, Southern Baptist Convention
“While I have never served on active duty in the military, I have pastored in a Navy town for 29 years. The Navy anchor symbolizes no drifting while in wind or waves. Johnny Hunt will help you stand firm against the drifting current of our culture in his book Anchored in Jesus.”
—Ted Traylor, Senior Pastor, Olive Baptist Church, Pensacola, FL
