Life Between Heaven and Earth

By: George Anderson, Andrew Barone

Narrated by: full cast

Length: 7 hrs and 31 mins

Publisher's Summary

The New York Times best-selling authors of Lessons from the Light offer a new and provocative understanding of heaven and how messages from the afterlife can assist you in the here and now.

We live in a world of near-universal acceptance that once our lives on the Earth come to an end, we continue to a greater world. Whether that destination is called heaven, nirvana, or simply the other side, tradition teaches us that there is, in most cases, a fairy-tale ending to life, a place where joy and harmony reign supreme. Yet, as this book attests, there is still more to heaven and Earth than is dreamt of in our philosophies.

George Anderson is considered by many to be the greatest medium living today. After more than 50 years of hearing from souls who have transitioned to the world hereafter, he is constantly reminded by those who have passed that our preconceived notions of this life - and the next - aren't always accurate. The nine stories in this book illuminate times when unusual circumstances, such as sudden death, unresolved emotions, abusive relationships, and painful family dynamics, make it necessary for the dead and the living to find new doors to healing.

In session with Anderson, survivors and those who have passed meet again in encounters that are profound, bittersweet, highly emotional, and sometimes downright funny. What we learn is that there are little-known spiritual treasures - and lessons to be learned - about heaven and Earth that can restore, revitalize, and make new what was once broken.

Life Between Heaven and Earth is an inspiring, thought-provoking, path-changing work, one that affirms that no matter how complicated a circumstance is, resolution, peace, and acceptance can be found in deep and remarkable ways.

not very helpful

this book was a let down for me I listened to The Happy Medium and The Light Between Us and was filled with peace and understanding about communications with our loved ones and ways to help us navigate better through our lives. I started listening to this book and found it to be a long set of personal stories illustrating simplified truths that I would hope most people listening to these types of books would already know. (such as you have a choice sometimes of when to cross - don't we know that already? maybe not?) if you are new to these types of books, enjoy long stories and details about a small set of families that have nothing to do with the crossing, and are looking for an introduction into the potential of an afterlife, this might be a good book. it appears to be well thought out by a seasoned medium, it just doesn't seem to contain additional information about the afterlife or concepts that bring peace to me.

Life Between Heaven and Earth.

I found this read to be most intriguing. Very well written and informative. Difficult to disconnect from temporarily. This is a must read. This book gives insight to the fact that we don't die, and that our loved ones are always near us during our journey on earth.

A review from 2010 on Amazon.com👎

Checked George Anderson's website & was shocked at what he charges for a session while stating that he wants to help people. Then I found a review on Amazon from 2010 that, if true, gave pretty good evidence of fraud & greed on the medium's part. It was enough for me to lose interest in continuing to listen to the rest of the book.

Very disappointed!!!

I lost count of the many times I heard the word "yes". It was if the people receiving the soul reviews were of limited vocabulary. Narration was dull. I do NOT recommend this book.

Unbelievably Boring

This collection of stories details how the spirits met their end, his/her life story, how special the person was, how much the family loved them, and how much they miss them. After 2 or 3 stories, you realize that you can only enjoy this much clairvoyance when you actually knew the spirit personally. This one is a dud.

Very Interesting

I liked the format used in this book. It was as though I was listening in on sessions with the medium.

Makes one realize we are never really alone

Where does Life Between Heaven and Earth rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This audio book is better than the book because of the different voices used that it makes you feel as if you are in the room during the conversation. It made me contemplate my life again and realize what we do here on earth those that have passed on are always near helping us in our troubles times and our happy times as well.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I love the session where the cancer patient was told by the infant she lost that all she needed to do was count to 1-2-3 and release and he she would pass on as if going through another room and she would be there. Nice to know our love ones will be on the other side when we pass.

Have you listened to any of full cast’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No, haven't heard speakers before. I really did enjoy the different casts of voices.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

A little girl's soul came to a session to talk to a Marine and say she was watching him. He didn't know her very well and yet she look at him as a dad. Shows us that a simple act of kindness can stretch love far beyond our understanding.

Any additional comments?

George Anderson has a gift and he is so generous to share with us healing stories.

10 Readings (Chapters) Well Worth the Listen.

Each Chapter is organized in a smart way. 1) George sets up the reading with a short synopsis. 2) The family member of the deceased tells the story of their loved one and how they passed. 3) The recreation verbatim of the reading itself. Of the 10 chapters (readings) I'd personally say 7 are very powerful and have you listening intently. The chapter with the Iraq War Veteran whose little brother hung himself in 2002 and how the Vet has been struggling here on Earth is sad, inspiring, beautiful and heartbreaking all at once. Worth buying the book just for that chapter. The brother and sister car accident chapter is the other one that really stood out.
All readings and stories are well worth the listen. As someone who has seen George and been to a reading at his home in 1996 I promise you this is no B.S. George is as real as it gets and things came through from my Grandfather, Sister and Brother who had all passed away that no soul on Earth would've ever known. This is Pre-Internet for the most part in 96 and thought I'm a skeptic by nature, which you may be too and wondering if this book is worth your time, trust me that George is a humble man with a gift not seeking celebrity or money. If you're searching for answers after you've lost someone, George is a great place to start. I consumed his books one-after-one b/c each one offered some sort of knowledge or peaceful realization that it kept me sane. Truly. Proof of Heaven by Dr. Eban Alexander is another good one if you are a person of Science and are skeptical of mediums and mystics. God Bless and I hope this book might bring some answers and peace.

The afterlife in a story form
