Eli Brackenbury

Eli Brackenbury is a writer, father, and EHS professional whose unexpected spiritual awakening at fifty reshaped every part of his life. After years marked by divorce, grief, striving, and quiet spiritual dryness, Eli encountered God in an ordinary moment that ignited an extraordinary journey of healing, purpose, and renewed faith.

Blending honesty, practical insight, and a deeply relatable midlife perspective, Eli writes for readers who feel stuck, searching, or quietly longing for something more. His work speaks especially to those returning to faith after years away, as well as skeptics and seekers who want a “real‑life,” non‑churchy approach to spiritual growth.

Eli shares reflections on faith, identity, mental health, leadership, and everyday spirituality on TikTok, LinkedIn, and his website, where his authentic storytelling has resonated with readers navigating seasons of transition, doubt, and rediscovery.

He lives in Washington and is the father of three adult children who continue to inspire his writing, his growth, and his walk with God. Finding God at 50 is his debut book and the first in a planned series exploring the journey of spiritual transformation at every stage of life.
