What if the stories of one childhood could shape the faith of a generation?
In the early morning hours of 2020, while the world stood still, Terrie Fahning walked and prayed and God reminded her of the childhood stories that had shaped everything she believed, everything she valued, and everything she still carried with her decades later. Stories born on a small farm in Stockbridge, Georgia. Stories of family and animals and the quiet, ordinary moments where God was present all along.
Mercy's Happenings is that gift, finally written down.
These are the true childhood adventures of Mercy Mae East, a name that carries its own quiet theology. Mercy, for the grace of God woven through every ordinary moment. Mae, in loving tribute to a beloved grandmother whose memory lives on every page. East, because Jesus will split the eastern sky when He returns, and that promise is woven into every story told here.
Each adventure in this faith-based children's story collection brings young readers into the warmth of farm life, the animals, the laughter, the family gathered close, and the lessons that only come from growing up rooted in love and faith. These are not simply charming childhood tales. They are memories offered with purpose, because the wisdom Terrie gained as a child on that Georgia farm still serves her today and she believes with her whole heart that it will serve the young readers who meet Mercy Mae East too.
At the end of every story, thoughtful guiding questions invite children and the adults who love them to go deeper, turning each adventure into a meaningful faith conversation that families, grandparents, church educators, and homeschool teachers can use again and again.
Perfect for:
Families seeking children's books rooted in genuine Christian faith and real-life wisdom Grandparents looking for a meaningful, faith-filled gift that will be treasured by grandchildren and great-grandchildren for years to come Church educators and Sunday school libraries building faith formation resources that children will love Christian homeschool families seeking literature with real spiritual depth, applicable life lessons, and ready-made discussion questions Anyone who has ever believed that God speaks through the ordinary moments of an everyday lifeWritten by a mother of seven, grandmother of seventeen, and great-grandmother of six a retired surgical tech, a taekwondo instructor, and a woman who has carried her faith through every season of a richly lived life Mercy's Happenings carries the kind of wisdom that can only come from someone who has genuinely lived what she is sharing.
This is not simply a children's book. It is a testimony in story form. And the families and children who need it are already out there, looking for exactly this.
Now they can find it.
