An Amazing God, An Amazing Life

Brent Albertson spent nearly four years in a comatose then catatonic state as a result of a brutal physical beating he received for a discretion he didn't commit. His spirit during this time resided in a place where spirits of people in similar states go to await their eventual destinations-a place called the Waiting Room.After emerging from his catatonic state, in addition to spreading the word about the Waiting Room and what this means for believers everywhere, Brent enjoys a blessed career in music as a college professor and performer, until his career as a violinist is tragically ended due to a car accident that renders him unable to play the violin again.Brent is called by God to enter the ministry and enjoys a second career as a Lutheran pastor, eventually earning a twice-weekly spot on a radio program, and then becoming a well-known pastor and televangelist throughout the United States and in twenty-six other countries. In his sixty-fifth year of life, Brent, who has earned the moniker "Father Forgiveness" for the message he brings concerning God's love, mercy, and forgiveness, is suddenly convicted by God to preach an entirely different message: a message he knows will not resonate well with many people-even Christians.Despite the possibility of losing congregational members, and the personal danger to both him and his family, Brent cannot, will not, and does not, disobey God.
