The Laughter of Sanity

by Richard Amiss

Overview

This book points out how the world with all its increased knowledge and technology has separated us from our connection to God and nature. We were built to be connected to God inside and around us. How is it that the world around us with all its sophistication cannot answer the question as to why there is so much chaos and disorder in our world? Knowledge and technology have interrupted our relationship to our Lord, leading us to build and live in a world without God. The characters within this story come from different backgrounds and walks of life. They have all been through strenuously trying experiences and at the same time are being drawn together in one place for an answer to their yearnings. Curiosity along with grief and loss set them all on their own journey that will eventually lead to the same place. To ignore our nature and origin in God leads to insanity. Therefore, where there is God there is order.

“This novel is a touching and heartwarming story of one man’s theological journey in which he is ultimately led to Jesus via his mother, Mary. Her gentle and profound apparitions in the tale, which all occur in America, are comforting and timely. This delightful and inspiring second book by Dr. Amiss can only serve to renew one’s awe and longing for Mary and faith in God’s providence. It was hard to put down.”
