What’s it like to walk with someone who is dying? And what lessons can we learn from this experience of witnessing someone passing from this world into the next? Enjoy an interview with an extraordinary doctor, Reggie Anderson, as he shares these truths with us. We talk about how a horrific event in his young life separated him from God, despite having grown up in a faith-filled home. He shares how meeting his future wife and studying medicine played key roles in returning him to a relationship with God. Dr. Anderson shares what it’s like to walk with the dying, including unexpected details, and how he has learned to diagnose through the power of human touch. We discuss how to press into faith even through challenges, making it to the other side of tragedy, and why he believes God allows calamities to occur in our lives. He also touches on doing the work God has called you to do, and why we should learn about living and dying from God’s word. This episode will surely bring comfort to anyone who has lost a loved one, and assurance to all of us in navigating our final journey.

Dr. Anderson is a true inspiration through his writings and insight.
YES, Keith! I adore him. What spoke to you the most through his writings/story?
I have read his books and was very glad to have him as my doctor after my husband died. Wish I could have kept him when I moved to Oklahoma!
Hi, Donna! YES, I have actually considered making the trek to see him as a patient. I can only imagine his compassion as you grieved for your husband. He is a very special man. (I am sorry for your loss, Donna.)
