Dear Ann, What an incredible blessing and encouragement you were to me when you first starting writing your books...I followed you.felt like I knew you, rejoiced with you and felt much empathy for your pain...I read Seduced by Success and I heard you tell of Will's passing on Dobson's Focus on the Family. I am delighted that the Lord is raising you up in ministry once again...I was pleased to find your site this evening and felt that I needed to add my comments as well. God is so good..he turns our mourning into dancing...Praise His Name..I will pray for you as you begin this new adventure in your walk with the Lord. Blessings, Kathy Renn

WOW! I am so blessed to see your sweet face again. A friend found you on FB tonight and told me, so I wanted you to know how much I've missed connecting with you. I lost track of you 10 years ago, with an address in Oakbrook, IL. Calendar we'd sent returned with no forwarding address. Do you give out your address anymore? We're still in our home on the mountain in Eagle River, Alaska. Breezy, 31, is married to Brian and they gave us our first grandchild, Allaire Kiersten Lewis, 13 months ago today. They live in Pearland, TX, near Houston, where we are currently visiting:) Christian is 25, living in Valencia, CA and has been looking for a job for 7 months.... He is a writer, with no outlet, at the moment, except blogging. He taught English for 2 years after graduation in Hawaii, and moved back to the mainland in June. Dmitri, 23, and developmentally delayed, left home at 18 and has been in trouble ever since; wants NO authority in his life:( Svetlana, 20, is way developmentally delayed, but loves JESUS and is still under our guardianship. She is a gem. YOU ARE LOVED! I am forever grateful for the time you spent with us in Alaska and for your beautiful transparency throughout your life. Much love and lots of hugs, Sandi TO GOD BE THE GLORY!

Today I was substitute teaching in a very difficult school, we have 30 minutes every day of silent reading. The teacher I was substituting for had your book, i love the word impossible in her library and I picked it up. It was incredible, I have struggles with depression in the winter and it was so great to be reminded of the happy loving part of me. It was so encouraging. It can be hard to be full of love for people because you are venerable and people who are not gifted in mercy have a hard time understanding. My church is experiencing a very difficult transition as the result of a moral failure in leadership. My church is a restoration church, which really means that people are walking out of all kinds of things here; homosexuality, pornography addictions, drug additions, broken marriages, alcoholism, drug addiction and, my heart often breaks for them. We are weird because we are sometimes known as the gay church or the sex church, and when people fall, we want to restore them. It is an incredible place full of all the things life should be full of. I was searching the internet to buy your book and I read your bio on your webpage, I read about your struggle with addiction. It was hard because I identified with your spirit so much in your book that I just felt like it was another disappointment and that no one can ever just get it right. Then I felt release, I don’t have to get it right. Perfection does not exist on earth. Thank you for being open, for loving deeply and unashamedly without apologizing, and still being a sinner. I struggle with a spirit of perfectionism, and I just felt like I was so much like you that I felt like you had it together, just because I love people and I want them to all love me, that’s not where I live. I exist apart from my dream to have a perfect, clean, exemplary life that everyone can look to as a standard. God just really used you today to speak directly to my heart and in my situation. It fit like a puzzle piece, all the weird corners and funny shapes.

Ann, I am SO glad I found you here. The memories have come flooding back- me as a college freshman, tentatively poking my toe back into the Christian world and inhabitants I'd run so hard from and who I was sure would reject me when they found out all I'd done. I heard you at a conference, and I think my mouth fell open and stayed that way the whole message. Finally, a Christian woman, who without judgement or condemnation, showed me th character of my Jesus, Whom I adore. It completely changed me. I got all your books. I wrote to you, and you wrote me back, more than once! Incredible. Once again, showing me that my Jesus is just like that- truly caring about the individual, full of love and compassion. I learned so much about my Savior through you. Several years ago, I found some of your newer books and was overwhelmed by your honesty. I'm on a quest to live a life of transparency, maskk-free, and your book, Seduced By Success, gave me such courage. I love you, Ann, and I pray for you. You are such a blessing and an inspiration. Always in our precious Jesus, Shelly Morales

Ann, it is so exciting to see your books (republished) today in the BCCC bookstore! I was so blessed and encouraged as I read them in the 1970's during a very difficult time in my life. Now I have Granddaughters that I can share them with now. I love you Ann.

Helen emed@att.net (01.03.2010 @ 21:06:55)
Ann, I found you last summer after many years of wondering what happened to you. I'm so sorry to hear that you lost Will. I read many of your books and loved the simple, but eloquent way you show your love for Jesus and the world. I was excited to see that you are writing a new book. At the time, I thought it will be a good read, but won't pertain to me because I'm happily married. Well, six months later I sit here devastated and confused. My husband of 12 years walked out 2 months ago. He said that he didn't love me anymore and didn't like the person I'd become. Well, as all couples do, we had our share of problems, but I never realized how bad it was. I thought we were still communicating, spending time together, being physical, etc. Apparently, it wasn't enough for him and he now has an apartment and I just found out that he has someone else. I don't know what will happen, but the future for our marriage looks bleak. He doesn't want to go to counseling with me. "It's over and you need to move on." I'm every second of the day resting in the loving arms of my Jesus. He is sustaining me when I don't think I can go on. Enough of my rambling. I've been reading your blog and find such encouragement. Thank you. I look forward to reading your book when it comes out and keeping in contact. You are such an inspiration. God Bless you.

We first met at the Crystal Cathedral at a Women's Conference in 1976. Later at what was then called the Glass convention in Pasadena. I've read all your books. I just recently moved to Idaho. I decided I would start over. Put all the books in order of date published and started again. How fun! The cities where you spoke used to just be names, and I would continue with the story. Wow, now I know where Idaho Falls is! I'm in Post Falls, ID. Yesterday I read that you were asked to make an extra stop and speak to students at Washington State University in Pullman. What! That meant nothing the first time, when my nieces and nephews were babies. Now.... they all graduated from WSU (at least the five that live in WA, the other five are in Missouri). And a chapter on St. Marie's. The parents of my niece's husband live in St. Marie's. I am really enjoying rereading your books, not only for the great power of love they have for Christ, but a totally different experience from the first time, because now I recognize these places. So fun. God bless you Ann. I've piced up the the blogs that you have a new book coming out. Can't wait to read it. With love in Christ, Chris.

I was wondering if there's an email or postal address to write to Ann... I tried the one listed above, but it doesn't seem to be allowing emails to go through. Could someone let me know if they have this information? Thanks!

Dear Ann, I was straightening up my book shelf this morning and found several books that I have by you. I started thinking about you and how you were doing because you had such a huge influence on me in my late teens. When I was around 18 I read your book I Gave God Time and decided that if you could pray for a sign from the Lord regarding the man that he had for you then it was alright that I do the same. I prayed that the man that God had for me would look for me in the Junior High Sunday School room where I was a counselor. Well, it happened a lot sooner then I thought it would (when I was 19!) and next month John and I will be celebrating our 24th anniversary. I cried when I just read that Will had gone to be with the Lord. After reading that book and your book And with the Gift Came Laughter, I felt like I knew the two of you personally. I hope that you can find comfort in the Lord every day and in the knowledge that you helped a gawky, self concious 18 year old have hope in what the Lord had planned for her. (Oh, and Happy Birthday!) Take care, Lisa Jones Rancho Palos Verdes, Ca.

Hello Ann, I am living in Jamaica, I recently heard your testimony on Focus on the Family. I am trying to get pregnant, unsuccessful so far, but still trusting God. I have learnt to trust in God's timing and just REST in Him. Your testimony really ministered to me. Thanks so much. Allison

Dear Ann, I am impressed by your book I'm Out to Change My World. It was helping me to see how you share Jesus with a one little boy. Your book was a blessing. May God continue to pour His blessings upon you and your children! Love you, Mariana from Bulgaria, Europe

Hello Ann - I still have all of your books that you personnaly autographed for me. My 16 yr old daughter found the books and has read them all. I am very grateful for your writings and your ability to share on such a basic level where we all live. It is wonderful to be able to follow you on FaceBook and on your web site. Your entire family has a very special place in my family's heart! Be Blessed this Holiday Season.

Ann I just wondered if you were still in Fresno? I travel the State for Moody Bible Institute and thought I would say hello sometime. It's been many years since I saw you last at the Red Lion in Portland at a Christianity Today Conference. We are very excited about your new book you are working on. It would be neat if it was on Moody Press:). Lord Bless, Rick

Ann, Jody from Fresno here! My sister-in-law sent me this link. I think this message will encourage you. It was very powerful for me. Would love to hear from you. http://video.google .com/videoplay? docid=- 50154357502616645 01# Blessings to you & yours. Jody McIntyre

I have followed you in the past, haven't thought too much about you and the books I have in the attic and the ones I have given away until early this morning when I got a nudge from God that I need to re- read your books and share them with others and also to ask Jesus to help heal a family problem. Always loved your message, God Bless you

Hello I am searching for audio or text for an older radio broadcast with Ann Kiemel Anderson. Unfortunately, the program you are referring to, "Finding Life At Death's Doorstep" which aired in 2001, is no longer available from Focus on the Family. Thank you,

John Nielsen nielsenhomeimprovement@gmail.com (11.05.2009 @ 21:01:04)
I am so touched by your testimony on Focus On The Family, Where can I get a copy??
