Prepare for take-off. You're in for quite a ride. Melody Carlson's The Waiting Room is a profoundly moving tale full of wit and wisdom and wonder. Recommended! Anita Higman, Best-selling Author of Winter in Full Bloom
The Waiting Room is a novella I would love to see read by every church-goer. In this fictitious story, Melody Carlson digs more and more deeply into the life of one woman until reaching the center of her heart; what we find along the way will startle you, challenge you, possibly bring you to tears, as it did me. The message is profound, and can be life-changing if one reads it with an open heart. Hannah Alexander, author of Hallowed Halls
THE WAITING ROOM is a neat story. It keeps you turning the pages, and it makes you consider your own Christian experience. Read it. Ask the Lord to help you look into your own heart. Eric Wiggin
THE WAITING ROOM... It happens to everyone. Someday it will happen to you. While you're reading these words, it will happen to more than fifty people--and by the end of the day it will have happened to about 10,000. Maybe even someone you know. And yet most of us don't want to talk or even think about it. Death...it's unavoidable. So what happens after we leave this life? If you believe in Heaven, what do you expect to find there? What if there was a waiting room? A holding cell for people who aren't quite ready to pass through the pearly gates. And if there was a waiting room, who would be kept there? And why? This fictional story explores this with a touch of humor and a dose of reality.
