The anchor is an important Christian symbol of faith and hope, and the solid rock it grips is the Savior—our Lord Jesus Christ. Well-known and award-winning author Gloria Stargel shows the difference Jesus makes in the lives of those who learn to trust Him. Clearly, He is at work in people's lives today, and this book gives us many examples of the changes He brings to those who are open to Him.

My Anchor Holds is filled with personal stories of life-changing miracles and many other examples of God's love and care. It deals with the crucial topics of coping with illness, building healthy relationships, overcoming loneliness and fear, and many other issues. Your faith will be strengthened as you read about those who have learned to triumph through Christ, and you will be able to proclaim with them, "My anchor holds and grips the solid rock."

Cecil Murphey writes, "Gloria Stargel tells heart-warming stories about cats, worn yellow socks, a silver belt buckle, kudzu, and lemon pie. She writes of miracles in her life, in her family, and in the lives of a few celebrities. Most of the stories revolve among the everyday, not-famous people—individuals open for God to work miracles in their lives" (Cecil Murphy, author and co-author of more than 100 books, including 90 Minutes in Heaven and Gifted Hands: the Ben Carson Story).

One family miracle that Gloria experienced was the dramatic and miraculous healing of her husband from cancer. When this took place, Gloria vowed she would follow God's will for her life. It was then that the Lord directed her to become a writer, and she has been faithful to that call ever since.

LeAnn Thieman, co-author of Chicken Soup for the Christian Woman's Soul, writes, "This book captures the very heartbeat of Christianity: Jesus Christ at work in everyday lives. Addressing universal needs, each gripping true story illustrates how Jesus makes a difference to anyone, anywhere."
