Mercy Never Sleeps: Sleepless Thoughts on Faith, Heaven, and the Fear of Heights

An entertaining, humorous, poignant, and deeply moving look into how God speaks to us and moves in mysterious ways to bring us true hope in an often dark and hopeless world. Jamie Blaine’s life is not exactly going as planned. When a twist of fate places the late-night psychiatric crisis guy on round the clock call, his insomnia ramps to desperate stages as he veers closer to becoming the very kind of person he’s trying to rescue. After a well-meaning colleague gives him a workbook promising “the divine secret of life” Blaine throws himself into the stereotypical journey of self-discovery with hilarious and heartbreaking conclusions that are anything but clichéd. Jamie travels time to untangle his own story of God through the wilderness, battling alligators, Ambien Zombies, acrophobia, anaphylactic shock, Christian tricksters, Christmas, hymn-singing bridge jumpers, pre-teen bullies, paranoid ER patients armed with knives, hatchet-wielding housewives, septuagenarian pugilists, locust swarms and ghosts of the present, future and past. If you’ve ever felt lost and stumbling, like you’ll never, ever find your way to purpose, plans and the Promised Land, Mercy Never Sleeps will help you make peace with your own rambling path home.
