About Navigating Grace: A Solo Voyage Of Survival And
Product Description A moving illustration of the power of grace to elevate us during troubling times, Jeff Jay offers a soulful account of his solo sailing journey that turned into a battle for survival on the open sea. Jeff Jay’s recent life was full of tragedy: his marriage had ended, his father had passed away, his brother had committed suicide, and Jeff’s own alcoholism had taken him to the edge of death. In his desire for a fresh start, Jeff set out on a solo adventure by sea on an old sloop named Lifeboat. It ultimately became a journey of personal transformation. He cast off in Annapolis, Maryland, with an eye toward the Caribbean. Finally able to breathe, Jeff relaxed into his first day sailing the Atlantic when a dark winter storm descended, tossing him into a week-long fight for survival on the open sea. As he faced the realization that only divine intervention could deliver him from certain death, Jeff desperately called on the deity that had intervened in the darkest hours of his addiction years earlier. An intensely personal testimony to calling on the power of grace in our darkest hours, Jeff’s is a beautifully written tale of far-fetched dreams, desperate prayers, and those miraculous moments that change our lives forever. Review "This honest and courageous spiritual memoir will bring 'amazing grace' to any reader." --Bishop Thomas Gumbleton " Navigating Grace is a gripping journey through the storms of life. Through his life-story of pain and loss, Jeff Jay guides us through turmoil and perils, and shows how to find hope and serenity from within." --Rabbi Yarden Blumstein, Friendship Circle Jeff Jay is a masterful guide, taking us with him on a gripping odyssey through perilous ocean waters, and through the anguish of his own soul. It’s a journey you will not forget. Written with stunning imagery, Mr. Jay’s encounters with the Divine are thrilling to read. I was captivated start to finish.” --Barbara Cofer Stoefen, author of A Very Fine House: A Mother’s Story of Love, Faith, and Crystal Meth "In 1990 Jeff Jay took off alone on a sailboat from Annapolis, Maryland heading for the Caribbean, and almost died in a violent winter storm 150 miles off Cape Hatteras. But Navigating Grace isn't just a book about survival at sea. "Years before, Jeff's alcoholism had taken him to the brink of suicide, and only a first-class miracle saved his life. But Navigating Grace isn't just a book about recovery from addiction. In the intervening years his younger brother had committed suicide, he'd held his father's hand as he died, and his first marriage had broken up. But Navigating Grace isn't just a book about loss. " Navigating Grace is an intensely personal story of the way God works through people, and grace seeps through tragedy. In telling his tale of far-fetched dreams, desperate prayers, and an old sloop named Lifeboat, Jeff Jay reveals those life-changing moments when miracles happen in times of pain and fear to change our lives forever. It is an unexpectedly humorous book, as well, that gives a new perspective on faith in the modern world. --William Cope Moyers, author of Broken: My Story of Addiction and Redemption Navigating Grace is a riveting read; a thrill by the seat of your pants trip to sea, to spirit and a life worth living.
