“Be Anchored is a luminous work of faith and resilience, infused with honesty and truth. Rimson uses personal testimony to both challenge and encourage the reader to cling to Christ constantly, but especially through trials. It is evident that this book is God-breathed, and a special blessing awaits all who will read it.”
– Gina Johnson, Author of “Love Delivered”
"Ariyana Rimson lives out what she believes in such an authentic way. Her life puts on display the topic of this book in a way that refreshes and inspires those of us who have had the privilege of knowing her through the years. Ariyana knows the peace of our Lord and exudes a joy amidst circumstances that can come only from him. I’m thankful for her taking the time to write this book and praying it helps all who read to know more meaningfully the peace and joy of being anchored in Christ."
-Dr. Kennon Vaughn, Founder of Downline Ministries and Lead Pastor of Harvest Church
“As a person who is picky about endorsing Christian material, I happily and without reservation, endorse this book. Ariyana is one of those friends who will always point you to Jesus and his word. I once heard someone gripe that she has a bible answer for every problem, and I thought, “What’s wrong with that?” Ariyana takes the illustration of an anchor and applies it beautifully to areas every Christian faces. As you do this study with the personal illustrations tucked in that give heart to these truths, be prepared to be infused with hope, encouragement, and the word of God in your journey to be anchored during the storms of life.”
-Dr. Georgia Pointer, Author of A Christian Woman’s Guide to Overcoming Messy Emotions and Think on These Things: 90 Encouraging Meditations for Spiritual Growth
“Be Anchored is a spiritually enriching 11-week journey that blends heartfelt testimony with Scripture to help readers develop unwavering faith and emotional stability through life’s storms—making it a must-read for anyone seeking true peace, purpose, and a mindset firmly rooted in Christ.”

the story behind Be Anchored.
When I was diagnosed in 2015 with Trigeminal Neuralgia, I knew that I needed to see Christ as more than my savior. He had to become my anchor! I was tired of trusting in the next doctor’s recommendations or the next medication regimen. I needed God’s grace to make it through those painful episodes. The image of an anchor was revealed to me during one of my quiet times, and from that point, I began the journey of making Christ my anchor. I had trusted in people for so long, and now no one had the answers. It was in the middle of my storm that Christ became my anchor. Hebrews 6:19 became my foundational verse, “This hope we have as an anchor for the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and one which enters within the veil”
