About this audiobook
Meet the country doctor who visits the front porch of heaven…and witnesses what awaits us there.
When a patient first asked Dr. Reggie Anderson to sit at her bedside as she passed from this life, something miraculous happened. As he held her hand, the veil between this world and the next parted…and he received an astonishing glimpse of what awaits us in heaven.
Little did he know this was just a foretaste of what was to come—a lifetime of God-given “appointments with heaven.” Join Reggie as he shares remarkable stories from his life and practice, including the personal tragedy that nearly drove him away from faith forever. As he reveals what he’s seen, heard, and experienced of the afterlife, we’ll learn how we can face the passing of our loved ones with the courage and confidence that we’ll see them again; discover what might happen when we expect the miraculous; and prepare for our own appointment with heaven.
Soul-stirring and hope-filled, Appointments with Heaven is a powerful journey into the questions at the very core of your being: Is there more to life than this? What is heaven like? And, most important: Do I believe it enough to let it change me?
“A beautiful tapestry…an appointment with heaven that will make you smile and cry as you soak it in.” —Steven Curtis & Mary Beth Chapman

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It was filled with the love of Jesus.
Gave me a couple of answers and left me with a couple of questions to think about and look to Him for answers.
I’m like the doctor, I can’t wait to get there but I still have work to do for Him even if it’s just praying.1 person found this helpful

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Wonderful! Encouraging and a blessing to hear. I recommend it.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I’m a therapist, and see plenty of darkness in the world. I turn to books to strengthen my faith. I really enjoyed this book so very much! The author (and narrator) make the book such a wonderful read/listen. If you are looking to modern-day, living examples of a living God, this book will strengthen and affirm your faith. Nothing is over the top or feels at all embellished. It’s like listening to a trusted friend talk about his life. Very highly recommended! ☺️?

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The reader made it real. Helped me look at death differently. I liked the faith Reggie had and how he described the passing of each person. I will recommend this book.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Excellent...it is a great book. God is not distant and neither is heaven.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A true story of a doctor's experiences with heaven as he experiences death and life through his patients.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5An interesting book, but not what I expected. The author speaks of his personal experiences as a physician, not only with death but also with life. Although I'm not usually a fan of these kinds of books, this was well-written and I enjoyed reading it.
