New Mercies I See

Set in rural Ohio churches, New Mercies I See does for the ministry what James Herriot did for veterinary medicine in All Creatures Great and Small. Whether it's sudden rain falling on a pain-wracked young man clinging to his brother's coffin, the guilty woman whose love for an abused baby brings resurrection to them both, or the overly enthusiastic pastor who has to serve communion with walnut juice freckling his face, these humorous, poignant, thought-provoking, and heartwarming stories recognize that the persistent grace of God is never far from any one of us.
