Bering Sea Messiah

Bering Sea Messiah is a redemptive, salt-stained journey into the heart of suffering--and the healing that follows when man dares to believe in something greater than himself.

Captain Davy Blue has weathered decades of storms, both at sea and within his own soul. Now in his sixties and captain of the Hope, a humble, dilapidated fishing vessel braving the tumultuous Bering Sea each year, Captain Blue quietly opens his heart and his ship to three young men adrift in addiction and despair. With the steady guidance of Vega--his fierce and grounded first mate--and Quinn--the ship's broken-hearted spiritual seeker whose relapses are matched only by his longing for truth--Blue leads the young men on a journey not just through crashing waves and brutal elements, but through the depths of their own shame, fear, and obsession.

The stories aboard the Hope are ones of of grit and grace, of failure and forgiveness, of mystical encounters and profound spiritual awakenings. Out on the edge of the world, where the sky meets the sea and time seems to bend, each man will be asked to face who he truly is--and who he might become.

In Bering Sea Messiah, Kenny Down weaves a deeply spiritual tale of transformation and brotherhood, reminding us that redemption is not reserved for the perfect, but for the willing--and that sometimes the most sacred places are found where no road leads.

Lovers of adventure and spiritual literature like The Alchemist, The Prophet, and Robinson Crusoe will feel right at home aboard the Hope with Captain Davy Blue at the helm.
