Do You Know Where You Are Going?: One Man's Story of September 11 and the Saving Grace of Jesus Christ

Front Cover
Lantern Books, 2002 - Biography & Autobiography - 134 pages
On September 11, 2001, Sujo John was on the 81st floor of the northern tower of the World Trade Center when the first plane struck the building. Do You Know Where You Are Going? tells in compelling detail the harrowing story of Sujo's descent down the stairwell, and how, as he was about to exit, the building began to fall around him. He talks about his desperate attempts to contact his pregnant wife, who worked in the southern tower of the Twin Towers, and how they finally arrived home some twelve hours after the planes struck. But Do You Know Where You Are Going? is much more than a gripping account of that terrible day. It is a tale of faith in the power of Jesus Christ and a dynamic call for all of us to recognize how short and vulnerable are our lives and how important it is that we welcome Jesus Christ into our hearts. As September 11 showed so vividly, we may plan for a long life in this lifetime, but much more pressing is how we plan for our next life. Sujo argues that only through the saving grace of calling upon Jesus Christ can we be guaranteed the life to come and offers ways we can turn our lives over to Him. Book jacket.

Page 8 - As for man, his days are like grass, he flourishes like a flower of the field; the wind blows over it and it is gone, and its place remembers it no more.
