Ouch is a labor of love, imagination, faith, and humor. Ouch the mouse is literally a birth miracle, because he and his mother, Missy, both survived. He was born full grown, with a heart and personality as big as his body. His parents, Mister and Missy mouse, knew that he was special at first sight, but even they did not realize what Ouch was born to give. Mister and Missy’s love of gospel music, their love for each other, and their love for the local church led this mouse family to open doors of love, appreciation, and understanding and closed doors of fear, hatred, and misunderstanding. How could a family of three mice repair a bridge of distrust centuries old between mice and men? This story affirms that our God does work in awesome and mysterious ways.
