On the Kansas plains, a young evangelist and a drifting cowboy help each other find God's love.
Young inexperienced 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—Jerimiah Eagleflight.
Challenged by their dialogue, Mercy must explore deep within herself to discover her true convictions, while Jerimiah 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.
A new edition of early 20th century best-selling author Harold Bell Wright’s classic, edited by Michael Phillips.
The Shepherd of the Hills is the classic story of the stranger who takes the Old Trail deep into the Ozark mountains, many miles from civilization. His appearance signals intellect and culture, yet his countenance is marked by grief and disappointment. He is a man with a mission, yet one which no one understands. What is his purpose in taking on the lowly work of tending local sheep? And how is it that he befriends these simple hill folk, despite his coming from the world beyond the ridges?
