About the Book

What happens when the ocean becomes your theology?

50 Shades of Blue is the story of one woman's journey through grief, doubt, and the kind of faith that doesn't flinch. Written in the voice of someone who has stood at the water's edge and finally waded in, this memoir is for anyone who has ever felt the pull of something deeper — and wondered if they were brave enough to answer it.

"I didn't find God on the shore. I found Him in the deep."
