Rescue 12 Responding

De: Faye Hamilton

Narrado por: Charles Fowler

What if the voices we hear in our heads are actual eternal beings that grow in strength by the choices we make?

David and Jonathan are paramedics that deal with life and death and the consequences of human choice. On Rescue 12, they respond to the tragic drug overdose of a group of teenagers at a high school party. One girl survives to tell what she witnessed in her near-death experience. This encounter results in the spiritual awakening of David and forces Jonathan to confront his own Christian faith which he abandoned when he came out as gay to his father.

What happens when the ambulance arrives? What happens when a patient dies? Why do so many things seem outside our human control? Why does God allow for sin, death, and suffering? What’s the point of trying?

These questions are answered, the emergency rescue calls are shared, and the lives of the two paramedics are forever changed by the spiritual warfare that they encounter.

A great listen!

Though this is fiction, the story is very believable and is much like real life. You can tell the author was an EMT for years because of the very detailed medical descriptions that only one who has worked in this field for years could know. I found that part interesting.

Also, the author does a great job at describing the spiritual aspect going on behind what we see everyday. Really changes your perspective on things in your life.

The narrator also does a great job reflecting the heart of the reader. Reads very much like watching a movie.

Captivating, Courageous and Thought Provoking

"We write to expose the unexposed... The writer's job is to turn the unspeakable into words..." Anne Lamott, wisely proclaims.

That is what Fay Hamilton has done in this epic adventure. Her words beckon you to peek below the veneer of life's happenstances, ironies and tragedies -and discover that there is another story being told of hope and purpose underneath the bleak belly of tragedy. You will likely find yourself embedded in the raw relational yearnings of Terry, David and Jonathan as a pathway into your own deeper questions. It is through questioning, that we find answers, and through tenacious digging, that we find wells of water beneath the surface of situations. Fay will invite you to take up your own shovel, your sword and your heart and step into your future with courage and purpose.

Wonderful Read!!!

Thank you for this book! What a great read! Kept us coming back for more every time we got in the car.

A Great Ride

Tears, laughter, twists and turns, from the beginning to the end, I was hooked. Life, death, pain and prayers, this book has a little bit of everything and it's all good. I loved the book and appreciated the energetic narration.

Very good!

Great book, realistic inside look into emergency medicine, and the real struggle within. Really enjoyed it!

Spiritually moving story, must read.

This book starts out talking of a girl and follows her a little, then it starts to follow along the 2 paramedics, who meet this young girl and sparks their belief in God. These paramedics are a team called Rescue 12. It follows along as Rescue 12 go to many calls and the book discuses the issues of what is happening, what is going on in the area (for example someone who was mad, it talks of anger talking to this person making them go off). There is so much more to this story as you read/listen.

The narrator was great, he pronounced words properly, and put voices to the characters. His voice rose and fell in all the right areas.

Between the great book and the great narrator it was great to listen to, Especially as I had a migraine so the soothing voice and being able to sit in a dark-ish cool room and just listen was a nice experience.

I loved this book, it is really moving. All the mini scene stories along with the main story really go together. It shows the spiritual battle of good versus evil going on behind the scenes that you don't see.

I received a free copy of this as an audio-book and am giving it an honest review of my thoughts.

Riveting!!

Fascinating and captivating right from the start! The author brings the reality of spiritual warfare and the power of prayer to life. The reader, Charles Fowler, does an outstanding job of character presentation in this thought-provoking story.
