When young pastor George MacDonald dares to ask questions about the nature of scripture and the living Word, his quiet inquiry sparks outrage from religious authorities. But when tragedy strikes and his five-year-old son suffers a life-threatening injury, George is thrust into a deeper anguish. As the boy’s condition worsens, George is condemned by fellow believers who claim the suffering is God’s punishment for his doubts. Alone in grief, stripped of certainty, George must wrestle with the silence of heaven and the cruelty of men. In the end, he finds no miracle—only Presence.

Malcolm is running. Not from danger, but from the flame that haunts his soul—the one he first glimpsed near the mountains and has fled ever since. But the farther he runs, the hotter the fire seems to burn… not around him, but within. In a parable echoing the voice of George MacDonald, Mercy That Burns follows one man's harrowing journey into the desert of self, where the robe he wears—stitched from his past, his pride, and his pain—begins to smolder. There, he meets a quiet traveler who knows more than he says… and a flame that will not stop burning until only the truth remains.

Elias is a brilliant scribe, exiled for daring to question the religious order that raised him. When he hears whispers of an orchard where truth lives and the Maker still speaks, he sets out to find it—armed with scrolls, logic, and pride. But the gate does not open for the learned. It opens for a barefoot child. Unable to enter, Elias turns to find another way—only to meet a strange old man named George, who walks the orchard’s edge not as a guard, but as a guide.
