The book was adapted into a feature film in 2011 titled Soul Surfer. Hamilton credits her Christian faith as a source of strength throughout her life. She is also the subject of the 2018 documentary Bethany Hamilton: Unstoppable, in which she discusses how marriage and motherhood have influenced her professional surfing career.
