Higher Is Waiting serves as a spiritual guidebook, drawing from a lifetime of experiences to inspire readers to elevate their own lives. Perry reflects on his childhood in New Orleans, marked by both grace and hardship, as he shares memories of the people who shaped him. He paints tender portraits of those who instilled values of integrity, trust in God, and forgiveness—like his aunt Mae, who cared for her grandfather, a former slave, and crafted quilts that told their family’s story; Mr. Butler, a blind man who sold penny candies with dignity; and his mother, Maxine, who faced abuse and adversity in the Jim Crow South yet radiated unwavering love for her son. Perry recounts how he nurtured his dreams and found solace in nature, driven by a determination to rise above challenges. He vividly describes his growing awareness of God's presence, learning to listen for His guidance, persevere through difficulties, and choose faith over fear. Perry embodies the roles of devoted son, loving father, steadfast friend, naturalist, philanthropist, and creative spirit, offering life lessons and scriptural insights with generosity, humility, and love.
