Synopsis

Now I Sea is the log of a voyage around the world filled with spiritual life lessons from the sea. In this collection of stories, personal adventures, and quiet reflections, you’ll cruise along the eastern seaboard of the United States, soak up some California sunshine, enjoy the Gulf of Mexico and Keys of Florida, sail to the Caribbean Islands, walk along the war-torn beaches of Normandy and the sun-drenched Côte d’Azur in France, swim with a wild dolphin in Ireland, and visit the ancient seas in Israel and Egypt. Watch God walk along the beaches of birth and death, exploration and adventure, life challenges and storms, war and pain, and healing and restoration. Laugh at humorous life analogies when sailing smooth seas and be deeply moved by tender insights while riding life’s roughest seas. Come and “sea” new things about God and yourself as you dive into this refreshing book.

About the Author

When award-winning author and speaker Jenny L. Cote first picked up her pen to write Now I Sea in 2003, she knew that she had found her true calling. She left the corporate world and began writing historical fiction novels for kids and young adults, but returned to refresh and re-release Now I Sea in 2024, along with a new Foreword written by Pastor Jack Hibbs of Calvary Chapel Chino Hills, CA. Jenny developed an early passion for God, history, and young people, beautifully blends these three passions in her fantasy fiction series, Epic Order of the Seven®. Likened to C. S. Lewis by readers and book reviewers alike, she speaks on creative writing to schools, universities, and conferences. Jenny has a passion for making history fun for kids of all ages, instilling in them a desire to discover their part in HIStory. Her love for research has taken her to most Revolutionary sites in the U.S., to London (with unprecedented access to Handel House Museum to write in Handel's composing room), Oxford (to stay in the home of C. S. Lewis, 'the Kilns', and interview Lewis' secretary, Walter Hooper at the Inklings' famed The Eagle and Child Pub), Paris, Normandy, and Rome. She partnered with the National Park Service to create Epic Patriot Camp, a summer writing camp at Revolutionary parks to excite kids about history, research, and writing. Jenny's books are available online, worldwide in stores, e-book, and audio formats.  To learn more about Jenny and her books, please visit her official website.

From the Back Cover

In her masterfully written work, Now I Sea, author Jenny L. Cote has managed to pen a colorful, thought-provoking, and meaningful journey. She leads the reader through the delights of life — those moments when all is clear and smooth, and the sun is shining as you feel the wind in your sails. And with equal relevance, Jenny reminds us that there is also a course we must sail that draws us ever closer to the Great Navigator of life Himself, Jesus Christ, as He helms the vessel that bears your name. From one chapter to the next, Now I Sea challenged my wife, Lisa, and me to become more childlike in our faith and have greater trust in our God.
-Jack Hibbs, Pastor, Calvary Chapel Chino Hills, CA
