The Miracle Pancake is a thoughtful, entertaining, funny and sometimes sentimental look at the struggle between spirituality, religion, current events, and commercialism in contemporary America.

From the Back Cover
"...The Miracle Pancake of Delgado, Texas receive[s] Divine endorsement[!]"--out-of-context quote from back cover.

A recently dumped psychologist, Timothy Fields, passes out from a beery football daze to dream of a depressed God seeking therapy. A failed faith-healing televangelist needs a ratings boost. An action-movie star needs a violent screenplay that keeps a respectful distance from current military reality. In a small Texas town, Maria Villareal cooks pancakes for her family and thinks she sees an image.

When his dream-therapy God muses about a creation-ending breakthrough, Dr. Fields quickly suggests a miraculous alternative.

Maria tries to share her pancake. The preacher and the actor vie for exclusive rights. Endless streams of pilgrims file through Maria's kitchen, fueling a thriving sidewalk market for miracle memorabilia.

Will The Miracle Pancake of Delgado, Texas receive Divine endorsement? Can Maria deliver her message of universal belonging over society's inevitable cacophony of distortions? What fate will she choose for her icon? Who will Dr. Fields bill for his services? How will they all live their lives after seeing God on a pancake?
