It was partly due to my parents’ unconditional support and my love of the ocean. But the biggest reason I kept surfing was my belief that God had my back.   

And I want more children to hear that message because too many of them are being trained up in fear, not faith. 

That's why I wrote a children's book called "Surfing Past Fear" with an amazing Christian publisher called Brave Books. 

I hope you'll consider giving a gift of $100 or any amount you can afford to support Brave Books as they help parents raise strong, resilient, God-loving children.  

In courage,

Bethany Hamilton

Professional Surfer and Mother

P.S. I've set aside a small number of copies of "Surfing Past Fear" just for the friends of Brave Books. When you support their work today with your gift of $100 or more, it'll be my honor to send you one. Thank you for helping America's children learn that God "has not given them a spirit of fear!"
