“I’m afraid there’s been an accident…”

12bdf6ff-3021-4e73-bccd-bc919398d1a0-7068-0000031133e7b4d9Sandy Brown and her family have just moved to Spokane, Washington where her husband, Scott, is pastoring a new church. With a fresh start, Sandy is determined to devote more time to her four children. But, within weeks of settling in their new life, the Brown family is plunged into turmoil.

Sandy receives shocking news that her children aren’t safe, which brings back haunting memories of the trauma she experienced as a girl. Then, the unthinkable happens…

A brutal attack puts Sandy on the brink of losing everything she’s loved. Her faith in God and the family she cherishes are pushed to the ultimate limit.

Is healing possible when so many loved ones are hurt? Are miracles really possible through the power of prayer? Can life return to the way it was before?

Blue Sky reveals how a mother’s most basic instinct isn’t for survival… but for family.

If you’re a fan of Karen Kingsbury, then you’ll love Blue Sky. Get your copy today on paperback or  kindle.

View from a Hawaiian Submarine

Looking out from the Hawaiian transport to the submarine


Looking back onto the beach


Surfers by the submarine


Looking at Diamondhead from the submarine transport boat


Looking back on Waikiki beach


enjoying the view from the transport


A beautiful sunny day for a boat ride


making waves


Looking at Diamondhead from the transport boat


Flying the flags


birds-eye-view from the transport boat


Further from shore


They mistakenly thought that they found diamonds on Diamondhead


a boat that marks the submarine site


The submarine is surfacing


Coming to the surface


up close


out at sea


preparing to enter the submarine


Down the hatch


One of our compatriots preparing to descend into the sub


final glimpse of the beach as we are descending into the sub


colour begins to change as we descend


Looking out the submarine windows


At 100 feet down, everything looks blue


underwater life


Looking out the submarine window


Reefs created to give safe habitat to smaller fish


The fish are drawn to these shelters


Strategically located to rebuild fish life


not what I would have expected, but certainly effective

fellow submariners


joyfully blue at 100 feet down


a sunken ship which serves as a fish habitat


No, this is not the Titanic 😉


My navy frogman uncle Don used to dive for sunken treasure in the Caribbean


It is interesting how underwater life reshapes sunken ships

Holding my breath until I turn blue


As we ascend, the blue colour is starting to become lighter

quite an underwater adventure

no mermaids in sight


The colours are gradually returning as we are coming back up


A final underwater ship

Definitely shipwrecked


Back up top


Saying ‘farewell’ to our sub


Heading back to shore

Flags flying as we head back to the beach


Our sub resubmerged with its next group of curious tourists


Back on shore after our submarine adventure
