Angles of Mercy

Faith, high-stakes pool, and a journey across America to save the broken

Grady Sterling leads a double life. On Sundays, he is the rock of a small-town Southern congregation. On weekdays, he is a master of the bumper pool table, navigating a world of felt, chalk, and high-pressure bank shots. Alongside his sharp-witted wife, Jackie, Grady hits the open road, traveling from neon-lit pool halls to luxury cruise ships in a mission that transcends the game. But the road is paved with more than just tournaments. As the Sterlings travel the heart of America, they find themselves acting as modern-day disciples for the desperate. Whether intervening in human trafficking rings or aiding victims of abuse, Grady and Jackie use his winnings to fund a secret ministry of mercy. However, the past has a way of catching up. When a dark gambling syndicate led by the ruthless Hollis 'The Shark' Weaver targets Grady, the preacher’s 'killer instinct' threatens to overshadow his faith. With ghosts from his pre-ministry life resurfacing and his marriage on the line, Grady must decide if he can clear the table without losing his soul. In this high-stakes chase through Americana, the most important shot is the one you take for someone else.
