About this listen

Dr. Kent and Amber Brantly (with David Thomas) tell of Dr. Brantly's near-death encounter with the Ebola virus in Liberia. The first American diagnosed during the 2014 outbreak, Dr. Brantly's ordeal - including his controversial evacuation to and hospitalization in the United States - received worldwide media attention. Interspersed in the account is the full story of how both Kent and his wife, Amber, sought to serve others in the name of Christ in Liberia. Then, when tragedy struck - as thousands, perhaps millions of people worldwide prayed for his life - miraculous events unfolded that resulted in Dr. Brantly's flight to Emory University Hospital in Atlanta...and an eventual clean bill of health.

Moving story, Not my favorite readers

I found Kent & Amber Brantly’s story to be well-written, thoughtful and spiritually compelling. It’s a difficult book because of the topic, but handled with sensitivity and compassion. I was drawn into the story enough to put up with my annoyance with the readers. Kaleo Griffith has a great voice but reads REALLY slowly with frequent LONG pauses. I don’t enjoy Sarah Zimmerman’s reading generally as she has a bit of a sing song thing going on. It’s not as bad in this book as some others I’ve heard.

What A Story!

As a Public Health major, the Ebola crisis in west Africa is udder horror to me. This book highlights relationship between patients and their care providers. As well as how Hope, love, compassion and faith are equally as relevant in the medical field. Would recommend to any one, religious or not.
