A quest for Truth…
a search for Faith…
and the discovery of Love
on the American Prairie
YOUNG INEXPERIENCED evangelist’s assistant Mercy
Randolph suddenly finds herself alone and penniless
in a small Kansas town in the 1890s. As she tries to
preach to the uninterested townspeople, her spiritual
foundations are tested by a most unusual cardplaying
cowboy with an even more unusual name– Jeremiah
Eagleflight.
Challenged by their dialogue, Mercy must explore deep
within herself to discover her true convictions, while
Jeremiah deals with questions of belief he has never
considered.
Meanwhile, a vengeful troublemaker bent on murder
threatens whatever happiness Mercy and Eagleflight
hope to find.
This tale sounds too incredibly complicated. How many “true convictions” does poor Mercy unpeel, for instance, and does she end up spending much time in the slammer?
I wonder what, exactly, is an “evangelist’s assistant”? And what kind of tools are involved?
