A Surfer’s Guide to the Soul by Bear Woznick. Sophia Institute Press (Manchester, NH, 2022). 176 pp., $18.95.
Sometimes it takes the raging waves of life to let us know that it is time for a change.
Heralded by New York Times bestselling author Anthony DeStefano “A magnificent, life-changing book,” A Surfer’s Guide to the Soul by Bear Woznick leads readers on daring surfing adventures amid the highs and lows of his life. A two-time world-champion tandem surfer and EWTN host, Woznick also wrote Deep Adventure.
“Bear shares his love for his greatest passion, the ocean, with all those he meets and in the pages of this book. His enthusiasm for life is infectious and his love of the ocean undeniable,” wrote Chuck Inman, two-time tandem surfing world champion.
Woznick offers reflections, based on his life journey, on how surfing led him to grow profoundly closer to God. Inspired by Scripture and the saints, Woznick compares his quest in the spiritual life to his experiences in surfing.
Sure to uplift, A Surfer’s Guide to the Soul will guide you in encountering the wildness and wisdom of God. As you develop a deeper personal relationship with Him, you will experience God’s healing, renewal, and strength in your weakness. “Ride the waves of the Spirit” and entrust yourself to God, even when there is no surf in sight.
Radio and TV host and bestselling author Dr. Ray Guarendi enthused, “Bear is a man’s man (check out his name!) in the best sense. Strength, courage, virtue—all brought to perfection by the true man, Jesus Christ—Bear brings to Christian men, who are often unsure about what a true man is supposed to be.”
Melody Green, author, speaker, songwriter echoed, “Find out how one man enjoys the highs, embraces the lows, and survives and grows from the inevitable wipe-outs. Whether you surf or not this book will challenge you in new ways to let go, dive deep, and give your all to God.”
Just like tandem surfboarders have to trust their lead partner to steer, we are called to place our total confidence in God, and let Him guide us over the waves.
