In this collaboration, Anne Graham Lotz writes about handing faith to the next generations and daughter Rachel-Ruth Lotz Wright provides personal examples from her great-grandparents, grandparents, parents and in-laws and her family. Topics addressed are witness, worship, walk and work with an inside look at the Graham, Lotz and Wright families as authentic people who strive to follow Jesus as their lifestyle. The family stories are poignant, humorous, and genuine. It's a treat to share glimpses into these families and their faith.

I received a copy of the book without obligation. This review is my opinion.

What an awe inspiring book! I first came to love Anne Graham Lotz at the Rupp Arena “Just Give Me Jesus” event many years ago. I was so blessed that day by the faithful teaching of Anne. I’ve just become aware of Rachel-Ruth and the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree! This book and the wonderful family stories makes be want a “do over” so I can do this life better for Christ. I have no children (taught school for years!) or husband but I gleaned so MUCH from this book! Highly recommend!!!! #Jesusfollowers

This book is a spiritual treasure. Anne and Rachel Ruth offer an honest look into their personal lives to show us what it looks like to walk out our faith in Jesus as His followers and how He's faithful to the generations following after us. We get to see why this family is so precious and it's because "God so loved them that He gave His one and only Son" and they've loved Him back with their whole heart.

Jesus Followers, by Anne Graham Lotz and her daughter, Rachel-Ruth Wright, is an engaging look at the family of Billy Graham and how the generations passed on a tradition of love and faithfulness to God. Anne contributes the introduction to each section, and Rachel-Ruth writes the bulk of the book. I found that Rachel-Ruth was occasionally preachy, but not in a condemning manner. The family stories are funny, heartfelt, and filled with hope and faith. Even those without children to pass the baton of faith will benefit from reading this book, since there are many examples of the power of prayer, community, and God’s faithfulness. I highly recommend this book.

Jesus Followers is such a sweet look into the Graham/Lotz family and their strong faith. Very inspiring and I would recommend this book.

Thank you to NetGalley for an ARC for an honest review.

This is another great look into the lives of Anne and her daughter. One often wonders what life would be like to be a part of the Graham/Lotz family. You find out they are just like the rest of us, but their spiritual life is so awesome. The spiritual truths found in this book are worth reading.

The only thing I, personally, found confusing was whose voice was being used. Then I figured it out. Ann has a chapter at the beginning of each section. Then Rachel-Ruth tells the rest in each section.
