Jess Carey

Jess Carey is the award-winning author of Chart a Course - Taking a Journey With God at the Helm. She holds a certificate of pastoral ministry from Hillsong Leadership College as well as a Bachelor’s of Fine Arts degree from New York University. She and her husband Alex have moved more than eight times across over 11,000 miles in the past decade, including a stint internationally. From acting in New York to running a business overseas, she has consistently stepped into the unknown. She has always been a dreamer forced to overcome a perfectionist’s fear of failure. Risk didn’t come naturally but it has been woven into the fabric of her life.

Her passion is to help people pursue their God-appointed purpose. From her first book, "Chart a Course: Taking a Journey With God at the Helm," she shared practical tools to follow God. She then spent several years working on smaller projects and articles and has been featured on Christianparenting.org, Focus on the Family, Grit & Virtue, among others. In her latest project, "Unshakable Peace in an Unsteady World," she collaborated with three other authors to bring peace to her readers as they face continued uncertainty. Jess is always pressing her readers out of comfort and into courage.
