A Surfer's Guide to the Soul by Bear Woznick

Emptiness. Burnout. Financial worries. Physical suffering.

Does your life ever feel like a storm surge?

World-champion surfer and adventurer Bear Woznick has spent decades on the ocean, riding its waves. He doesn't stand on the shore with his toes in the sand; he goes out into the deep water to watch and wait -- and, if need be, to paddle hard to survive.

In this compelling spiritual memoir, Bear takes you on a journey from the mountain waves of Hawaii to the Wedge of Newport Beach, California, showing how his experience surfing led him to a profound encounter with God: Wave after timeless wave breaking on the shore drew me into a contemplation of God's eternity.

Journey with Bear through the winter and summer swells of his life, and how he learned to become a soul surfer. Drawing from decades of his own reflections and growth, he'll show you how to:

  • Go into the deep to find communion and intimacy with God

  • Be bold and decisive even when there's no surf in sight

  • Attune your soul to God, like a tandem surfboarder, and plunge into the waves

  • Surrender yourself to the Creator, just as a surfer abandons himself to an epic wave

  • Let go, rest in God, and allow Him to work in your life

  • Detach from the false comforts of the world to be free, like a surfer leaving the shore

  • Enter the ocean's solitude and be transformed to contemplate God face-to-face

  • Humble yourself before the awesome power of God so He can raise you up over the waves

Bear Woznick holds multiple Masters World Tandem surfing titles, co-founded the World Tandem Competition Tour and travels the world promoting the art that he loves with BearsWave Tandem Expression Sessions. In addition to his surfing he is a private pilot, holds a black belt, rides a Harley, and plays the ukulele. He is also a novitiate oblate of the Benedictine Monastery of Oahu.

Lou Aronica is the co-author of the New York Times bestseller, The Element, the national bestseller The Culture Code, and several other works of nonfiction and fiction. You can find Lou online at www.fictionstudio.com.
