PLATINUM-certified, GRAMMY-nominated artist and songwriter Anne Wilson releases her new book, Rebel: Following Jesus When the World Walks the Other Way, available now via W Publishing, an imprint of Thomas Nelson. Following the success of her debut book, My Jesus, and her K-LOVE Fan Award-winning Hey Girl 40-Day Devotional, Rebel marks Wilson's third book and continues to expand the faith-forward storytelling that has resonated across her music, writing and live shows.
"Jesus changed my life when He showed me that following Him isn't about fitting in, it's about standing out for His kingdom," shares Wilson. "'Rebel' is an invitation to live with that kind of bold faith. My hope is that readers walk away inspired to trust God more deeply, love Him more fully and courageously follow Him wherever He leads."
Rebel explores what it means to live as a true follower of Jesus in a world that often pulls people in the opposite direction. Blending personal stories with biblical insight, Wilson offers a fresh perspective on living a life of purpose and conviction, even when it means looking like a rebel to the rest of the world. Inspired by Wilson's 16-track, genre blending album REBEL, the book further extends the message of the bold, uncompromising faith that has become central to her artistry. Providing practical applications and chapter-ending prayers, the book inspires a bold, countercultural commitment to Christ, appealing to both longtime believers and those exploring their faith.
The release arrives on the heels of Wilson recently taking home the Book Impact Award at the 2026 K-LOVE Fan Awards for her Hey Girl 40-Day Devotional. Created to help young women discover their true worth and unshakable identity in Christ, the devotional continues to make a meaningful impact with fans across the country.
Wilson recently extended her 2026 nationwide The STARS Tour into the fall with 24 additional dates across the U.S. The new leg adds to the previously announced 30 dates, bringing Wilson's live show to cities across the West Coast, Midwest, South and more. Special guests Peter Burton and Aodhán King are set to join on select dates. Tickets are available for purchase via annewilsonofficial.com.
