Making Small Talk With Jesus: A Country Ballad - Paperback

by Quincy McCoy (Author)

Making Small Talk With Jesus is a soulful Western novella about grief, radio, and the long road to forgiveness.

It's a story about a marriage falling apart and the family's downward spiral after the loss of a child. It follows Jesse Mack Jr., a country radio DJ whose grief pours into his radio show, The Country Bus. His poetic longing for his dispirited wife, Lexy, who has run off with another cowboy, and the heartfelt ballads he plays become a local sensation-Jesse's music touches lost souls, comforts his listeners, and fuels their desire to see him reunite with Lexy.

Told with the rhythm of a country ballad and the power of a spiritual awakening, Making Small Talk with Jesus is rich in heartbreak, music, and grace. Through a tapestry of motel rooms, dusty rodeo towns, lonely highways, and radio towers blinking in the dark, the tale paints a world of sorrow, memory, and unexpected redemption.
