This collection of true stories encourages readers to reconsider their view of how God works in and through our world.
One afternoon, best-selling angel-book author Joan Wester Anderson came across an account of a woman who believed she had been protected by an “angel” dog. An angel dog? Nonsense, thought Anderson. But the more she thought about it, the more she realized that perhaps she was putting limits on how God ought to act. If God is the God of everything, can’t he use anything—even a dog—to help people in their time of need?

Angelic Tails is written from a clearly Orthodox Christian perspective. In fact, Anderson opens the book by describing how she came to embrace the idea of God’s dog-helpers only after asking the Holy Spirit for discernment. In the end, for all who see through the eyes of faith, this book is evidence that God can use even muddy paws and cold noses to fulfill his purposes in our world.
Muddy paws. Cold noses. The Lord works in mysterious ways.
