Rough Way to the High Way

De: Kelly Mack McCoy

Narrado por: Todd Weir

Pastor turned long-haul trucker Mack struggles with grief and perceived failures as a minister while he is confronted with a mysterious hitchhiker, smugglers, and a determined killer. After an unbearable tragedy strikes his life, he sells everything he owns and buys a new Peterbilt truck, returning to the trade he learned decades earlier.

Hoping for some windshield therapy and peace of mind behind the wheel of his new rig, Mack gets neither, after God nudges him to pick up a hitchhiker near the Jordan State Prison outside Mack’s childhood home of Pampa, Texas.

When his world is ripped apart, he seeks to run away from it all, going as far as to cut off communication with all but a handful of people. But he is pursued by God, who will not let him go. Unbeknownst to Mack, God is equipping his servant with tools to handle events his past education and experience could never have prepared him for.

The story unfolds as the hitchhiker enters Mack’s Peterbilt. The man reminds Mack of his father, a hard-living, hard-drinking oilfield roughneck who died in prison. God begins to do a work in Mack’s heart while Mack seeks to minister to his new passenger. But Mack soon rues the day he let the hitchhiker into his truck.

His old life in ruins now, Mack learns he has angered a new enemy who threatens to destroy his life on the road, as well. Mack suspects he is being followed and is in the sights of a killer who plots a revenge no one could have seen coming. God works his mysterious way in Mack’s life steamroller-style all the way to an ending that will leave the listener thinking about it long after listening to the end.

Rough Way to the High Way is the first of a series of novels about Mack’s adventures on the road as lives are transformed through his new ministry. The first life to be transformed as Rough Way to the High Way develops appears to be that of the hitchhiker. But God is working in Mack’s life all along, preparing him for a new ministry that will transform lives across the country.

wonderful, delightful, praiseworthy.

From the very beginning of the story, we are on the road, with Mac. We already are trying to figure out what is it that God has in store for him. He it’s already doing something that most people would not do. Early in the book, I was very impressed with the authors ability to weave scripture into the story. He does it in a way that it was seamlessly inserted. As a series of events cause Mac to take a different course, literally and spiritually, we are hanging on every turn of the page to find out what will happen! Mac is used, as a pawn, in a game he did not even know he was playing. He is quickly involved in deceit, murder, and have a never ending pursuit of the almighty dollar. These are just some of the things that are on the surface.

Mac soon finds out that not everything is as it seems. What should’ve been a simple delivery, turns out to be much much more! His truck is broken into, Mac is under fire, and he has someone who keeps popping in and out of his life. Oh yeah, by the way, during all of this he manages to speak to others about Christ. Before we know it, Mac is involved in something that goes far beyond what he ever thought. Corruption, from local government on up! How do you think you would feel if your life was in danger, and you didn’t even know it?

I eagerly anticipate reading the next novel by this author. I can’t wait! Text field Double-tap to edit. Actions available
