I first met Anthony Bonner, native of the St. Louis inner-city, when he was in Ferguson, MO, upon the first anniversary of 2014 Ferguson unrest following the Michael Brown sadness. He was here to minister, to “bless,” to be a calming, Christ-like influence. He was … and he continues to be.
From his website www.anthonybonner.tv is a summary of his story: “Anthony Bonner is a man who has sold out and surrendered to the Kingdom of God! He is ordained and chosen by God to be His minister, not man! He went from having nothing to having it all according to the world. Then he lost it all – fame, fortune, family and friends! There in the valley of the shadow of death he would have the purpose for his being revealed. Anthony is a former professional basketball player of 14 years, both in the NBA (Sacramento Kings, New York Knicks, Orlando Magic) and all over the world (Italy, Greece, Turkey. Russia, Argentina, Spain and Puerto Rico). He now travels the world as a messenger of the Gospel of Jesus Christ sharing with audiences ranging from Presidents of Nations, to students, to the homeless, to those of wealth and influence and to those who are physically or spiritually imprisoned! The message of redemption, love, forgiveness and resurrection! All is possible to them that believe!), and several years in Europe – summarizes “new fire” in his life.”
