Let’s do this together!

The Far Bank: 40 Devotions for Anglers launches August 5, 2025. I’m looking for friends, family, and fellow anglers to help me launch this book. There are several ways to be on the team (see below). Zero pressure. All fun. And all for the glory of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. John 3:30!

Endorsements of The Far Bank

I’m deeply grateful for these kind words from men and women I greatly admire in our fishing community!

This brilliant devotional is written by a lover of grace, beauty, moving water, and the reflection of the face of God in the wonder of what is learned when we peer below the surface. Let it catch you. Sit and wait. Let your heart be stirred and open your eyes to what you can’t see but is there despite your best efforts.

I wholeheartedly recommend this book to anyone seeking a fresh perspective on faith. Prepare to be hooked—just like I was—eager to dive deeper into the next insight and examine your heart in response to God's enduring love and truth.

I count Zeke Pipher as one of my heroes. In addition to being a full-time pastor and devout family man, Zeke finds time to enjoy his passion for the outdoors, hunting and fishing wherever and whenever he can. And somehow, he also finds time to write, and write very well. I’ve been covering the outdoor world for over 30 years and Zeke is on my short list of ‘must read’ colleagues. I can think of no one more qualified and capable of penning a devotional for anglers like The Far Bank.

I happen to love two things Zeke loves: Fly-fishing and the Gospel. You don't have to love either to enjoy this book, but you may end up treasuring both. With heart and art, Zeke invites us to connect with the beauty of God's creation, the possibilities of his grace, and the gift of new life. These 40 devotional reflections are a well-timed mercy to my own heart, as they will be to many.

I admire Zeke's ability to balance his passion for the outdoors with his faith and family, and his writing resonates with many. The Far Bank is another insightful and inspiring work.
