What does a Hip-Hop artist, Waffle House waitress, tire
salesman, and disabled girl have to do with discovering spiritual
truth? What if embracing authentic Christianity is a journey of
unlearning? Welcome to Jim Palmer's world
Don Miller meets Anne Lamott meets Brian McLaren in this tale of
shedding religion and plunging into uncharted depths of knowing
God. Jim Palmer, emergent pastor, shares his compelling off-road
spiritual journey and the unsuspecting people who became his
guides.
"Perhaps God's reason for wanting me," writes Palmer, "is much
better than my reason for wanting him. Maybe God's idea of my
salvation trumps the version I am too willing to settle for. Seeing
I needed a little help to get this, God sent a variety pack of
characters to awaken me." For all those hoping there's more to God
and Christianity than what they've heard or experienced, each
chapter of "Divine Nobodies" gives the reader permission and
freedom to discover it for themselves. Sometimes comical, other
times tragic, at times shocking, always honest; Jim Palmer's story
offers an inspiring and profound glimpse into life with God beyond
institutional church and conventional religion.
"I am tempted to say that Jim Palmer could well be the next
Donald Miller, but what they have in common, along with an honest
spirituality and extraordinary skill as storytellers, is a unique
voice . . . Divine Nobodies is a delight to read, and it was good
for my soul to read it."

"You hold in your hands an amazing story of a broken man finding
freedom in all the right places-in God's work in the lives of some
extraordinarily ordinary people around him. You will thrill to this
delightful blend of gut-wrenching honesty and laugh-out-loud
hilarity, and in the end you'll find God much closer, the body of
Christ far bigger and your own journey far clearer than you ever
dreamed."
