My Jesus: From Heartache to Hope (an Encouraging True Story of Recovering from Tragedy and Finding Purpose)

See how beauty can come after heartbreak and suffering when you allow God to wipe away your tears.

"Whatever you are feeling, God can handle it--all of it. The tears, screams, and questions. God invites you to let Him tend to your heart."

In the bluegrass fields of Kentucky, Anne Wilson and her siblings, Jacob and Elizabeth, grew up in the security and love of their family--and Jesus. But when Jacob died in a car accident, Anne was thrust into a painful journey of grief and soul-wrestling that led to God calling her to create songs that glorified Him.

My Jesus weaves together Anne's personal story of tragedy and the journey toward healing along with an encouraging message to anyone longing for God to wipe away their tears.

No matter what season of life you're facing, My Jesus comes alongside you to:

• Show how God can bring purpose out of loss
• Offer hope in the midst of heartbreak
• Remind you that God never abandons you

My Jesus will help you discover the beauty that can emerge from suffering as you read Anne's story of growing closer to the God who always makes a way.

Praise for My Jesus:

"I love how Anne Wilson invites us into the cracks and crevices of her life and how she built her life on Jesus. My Jesus is personal, and it takes you on a journey through some of the most foundational parts of Anne's life that develop into a large picture where it is so clear that God was the artist of it all. As I read through each page, I felt like I was at coffee with Anne, hearing her story."

--Sadie Robertson Huff, author, speaker, and founder of Live Original

"The song 'My Jesus' has impacted so many of our lives in such important ways. Reading this book, being in the moments with Anne and her family, and hearing her faith rise up when her heart was broken, Anne has told a true and deep story that we all need to read."

--Annie F. Downs, New York Times bestselling author of That Sounds Fun

Anne Wilson with a transcendent vocal, down-to-Earth storytelling and a Heaven-sent desire to glorify Jesus, Anne Wilson is one of Nashville's most inspiring young trailblazers - a Lexington, Ky. native mixing the heart of Contemporary Christian Music, and the sound of Country. Finding her musical mission in the wake of tragedy, Wilson delivered her first public performance at 15 while singing "What a Beautiful Name" at her brother's funeral in a moving expression of faith which soon went viral. Called in that moment to continue, her 2021 debut single, "My Jesus," marked the arrival of a new star, fusing personal conviction with upbeat roots energy to become a GOLD-certified No.1 on Billboard's Christian Airplay chart. The track made Wilson the first debut female solo artist in chart history to reach No.1 and went on to be named ASCAP's 2022 Christian Music Awards Song of the Year. Now boasting more than 435M global career streams, her rise is gaining momentum.

Wilson was nominated for a GRAMMY for her 2022 debut album My Jesus (making her the only female in the category for Best Contemporary Christian Music Album), and has already won two GMA Dove Awards (New Artist of the Year and Pop/Contemporary Recorded Song of the Year for "My Jesus") and two K-LOVE Fan Awards (Female Artist of the Year and Breakout Single for "My Jesus"), while also scoring a coveted American Music Award nomination (Favorite Inspirational Artist). Making her Grand Ole Opry debut in 2021, Wilson continues to thrill live audiences, performing 150 shows in 2022 while being named to both the RIAA Class of 2022 and Pandora's Artists to Watch 2023: Christian/Gospel, and also publishing a bestselling book titled My Jesus: From Heartache To Hope last fall. Her uplifting anthem "Hey Girl" is out now and has led to the creation of Hey Girl Nation, a community for fans to connect and encourage self-worth. Wilson is looking ahead to a new chapter - one that builds on her vision and continues to blur the musical divide. "It's the heart of Christian Music, the sound of Country . . . and the hope of Jesus," she says. "I hope it all points back to Him."
