Anne Marie Miller (born February 19, 1980) is an American author based out of Lubbock who writes on topics such as faith, sexuality and psychology.〔(Interview with Anne Jackson on Depression (Part 1) )〕 She was previously known as Anne Jackson. ==Biography== Anne Marie Miller was born February 19, 1980. Her father was a Southern Baptist pastor who mainly taught at smaller, rural churches in West Texas. He resigned from vocational ministry and her family moved to Arlington, TX in 1996. During this time, Miller decided to leave her faith-based upbringing and considered herself agnostic. Graduating high school as a junior and foregoing a college education, Miller rapidly climbed the career ladder in corporate communication, working at up-and-coming technology and design firms in the Dallas area. However, after several years away from the church and her faith, Miller moved to Kansas City, MO. She began working in communication and business development at not-for-profit organizations in Kansas, Texas, and Oklahoma. She reclaimed her faith, although she does not state any denominational preference. At the age of 25, Miller experienced a severe stress-related illness and was hospitalized. After recovering, she conducted surveys of leaders in faith-based and charity work to determine how stress affected people in those vocations. The surveys indicated many people in not-for-profit or faith-based work were suffering from physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual ailments, with the results being the basis for her first book, published with Zondervan Publishing House under the name Anne Jackson. In 2013, Miller married youth pastor and improvisational performer Tim Miller and moved to the Dubuque area and is studying behavioral science and theoloogy. She is an author, public speaker, freelance writer, editor and consultant. Since her marriage, she has chosen to change her public name to match her legal name. Miller released her book ''Mad Church Disease - Overcoming the Burnout Epidemic'' (Zondervan) in February 2009, using her name at the time, Anne Jackson. She contributes to a number of magazines and blogs, and she is a Compassion International advocate. In December 2009, author Seth Godin released an eBook titled ''What Matters Now'' in which Anne was one of 72 contributors.''Permission to Speak Freely: Essays and Art on Fear, Confession and Grace,'' published by Thomas Nelson, in 2010. In 2014, she re-released ''Mad Church Disease: Healing from Church Burnout'' and ''Beating Burnout: A 30 Day Guide to Hope and Health.'' Her fourth book, ''Lean on Me: Finding Intentional, Vulnerable and Consistent Community,'' published October 7, 2014 by Thomas Nelson. She frequently speaks at churches, colleges, and conventions. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anne Marie Miller」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
