Synopsis

Problems can make you feel like God is far away, but they can also be the very things that bring you closer to him.

Anchored In isn't a book of Christian cliché's or sweet stories to warm the heart but rather an authentic look at the hard parts of life. It challenges us to stop running from and clinging to the past, and to grasp tightly to the only unshakable Anchor that is able to sustain our souls through the storms of life.

Micah shares personal stories, such as her father's abandonment of her family, and couples them with biblical application to offer real-life glimpses of God at work. She offers inspiration to live a life full of God's power rather than one that causes us to turn away and be paralyzed by problems.

Living anchored in God's presence is a beautiful gift that few truly experience simply because they do not understand the key to God's power - surrender. Or if they know to surrender, they do not know how to let go of the problems that consume their lives. Through simple, tangible steps learn to surrender in every season of life.

Hearing from God is not reserved for a chosen few, but rather promised to those who believe. If you are longing to experience God's power in a deeper way, this is a journey for you.

"When heartbreaking seasons shake us to our core, we often grab for everything other than God. But Micah tenderly reminds us page after page that Jesus is the only true Anchor who will hold us, steady us, and bring us through to the other side of every storm."

-- Lysa TerKeurst, New York Times bestselling author and president of Proverbs 31 Ministries

As a friend and guide, Micah Maddox will walk with you through life's hard times and show you how, through God's power, you can get to the other side with greater freedom, strength and victory.

-- Holley Gerth, Wall Street Journal bestselling author of You're Already Amazing

There are times when life hurts deeply. Though the grief, struggles and pain, we need reassurance that we are not alone.

-- Karol Ladd, author of Thrive, Don't Simply Survive and Power of a Positive Woman

Life is hard. Most of us have learned that truth firsthand, the hard way. Trials, broken dreams, and the unexpected storms of life can leave us stuck in the past or numb in the present. Anchored In is more than a pep talk or quick-fix formula--it is a way of life. It should be required reading by every believer, whether your storm is in the past, the present, or looming on the horizon. Regardless of the forecast, grab a copy and get anchored in!

-- Vicki Courtney, best-selling author of 5 Conversations You Must Have With Your Daughter, Move On, and Rest Assured

Micah speaks about deep issues, pains, and struggles because she has been there. In the pages of Anchored In, you will find the healing hope of God. It's brave, authentic, and powerful.

-- Courtney DeFeo, author of In This House, We Will Giggle

When I watch the news each morning and feel the swirl of circumstances around me, it's easy to feel powerless in this crazy world. Micah reminds us that it's not our job to be powerful. It's our gift to be connected to a powerful God. Through the vulnerable telling of her personal story and the timeless truths she embeds, Micah holds out a lifeline to us that's Anchored In hope.

-- Amy Carroll, author of Breaking Up with Perfect and Proverbs 31 Ministries speaker and writer
