Many Christian families today would like to leave a legacy of faith for the next generation but sadly lack any example of what this looks like. Jesus Followers offers the example we all need, giving us a beautiful, honest look at what a legacy of faith can look like when a family chooses to truly follow Jesus. My faith has been ignited by every chapter of this book!

In this brilliant book, Anne Graham Lotz and Rachel-Ruth Lotz Wright invite us into their familys story, and along the way, we find many important and inspiring teaching moments for our own lives. Throughout these wonderfully wise chapters, were encouraged to walk in grace, worship with joy, bring faith to the home and workplace, and trust in God in every situation. But most refreshing of all, we are invited into a wholehearted, vibrant relationship with Jesus Christ. Highly recommended!

Each new generation needs to hear the gospel. Billy Graham preached the gospel faithfully to his generation. His daughter Anne has carried the baton of faith to reach her generation. And now she and her daughter Rachel-Ruth Lotz Wright are helping us know how to reach the next generation. Their new book, Jesus Followers, will help you take stock of your faith and grow in your walk with Christ. I highly recommend it.

Greg Laurie , senior pastor of Harvest Christian Fellowship

The most pressing need for believers in Christ today is to live out a robust, vibrant, biblical faith and encourage our children and grandchildren to do the same. As parents of six children and thirteen grandchildren, we highly recommend Jesus Followers, which clearly outlines the game plan for how to hand the baton of faith to the next generation. Anne and her daughter Rachel-Ruth are so transparent with their personal stories and struggles as they challenge and inspire all of us to live with an unwavering commitment to see the next generation ablaze with passion for Christ.

I first met Anne Graham Lotz and Rachel-Ruth Lotz Wright when I was a student athlete at the University of North Carolina. Annes late husband and Rachel-Ruths father, Dr. Danny Lotz, was my FCA leader, and he discipled me. Through many dinner conversations in their home, I have the greatest admiration for their family and how they modeled a deep love for the Lord Jesus Christ. Having a solid foundation and heritage of faith, Anne and Rachel-Ruth show us that we can win this battle for our childrens futures. I highly recommend Jesus Followers to anyone desiring to ignite faith in the next generation.

Jesus Followers is a remarkably insightful and practical book designed for anyone who cares about this generation. While it is filled with a multiplicity of incredible real-life stories, the hope of Jesus seems to jump off every page. This is an incredible resource for parents, student pastors, educators, or anyone discipling the next generation.

Dr. Brent Crowe , vice president of Student Leadership University, Orlando, Florida

The truth in Jesus Followers went straight to my soul. There is no greater, more important message. This beautiful book opens hearts and minds, allowing us to experience weeping, rejoicing, newfound courage, hope, and resolve. This is a must-read for all who know Jesus and for those who have yet to receive Him.
