“I had one vacation day that my airline assigned to me. It was September 11, 2001. For months prior to this date, I tried to move this vacation day to add it to a string of other vacation days. When my attempts failed, I tried to swap it with co-workers. This attempt failed too. So when I began my two-day trip on September 10, 2001, I was forced to split off the trip that evening and drive home because my airline’s policy did not permit me to fly on a vacation day. On the morning of September 11…”

“…as soon as it went onto the hard road surface, it started rolling over and over. As I watched this all happening, I thought perhaps people were being thrown from the van… The parents did not look around at the kids; neither did they speak. Although they were doing exactly as I had told them, I was a little surprised at the peaceful scene with no crying… and just silence.”
Debra McFarland
“Then out of nowhere, a car was coming at us at high speed, running the light… I left my body. I started going down this long, dark tunnel. It was dark… so dark. I knew I was dead and I was going to hell. You couldn’t even see the hand in front of your face.”

“I might have felt unwell on a rare occasion, but never sick enough to cancel a meeting. This was a very important meeting worth many millions of dollars… I was, however, sure for some reason inside my mind that I was not going to the Twin Towers on Tuesday, September 11th for breakfast.”

“I was on life support and in a coma for twenty days. I had blood clots that went to my brain and to the right lung.”
Paul Umbaugh
“They were advised that I was brain dead, and the only thing keeping me alive was the life support machines. My family knew that I did not want to be kept alive by machines and the hospital staff was getting them to sign to take me off of life support.”
Christine Uwizera Coleman
“In 1990, a war broke out in Rwanda and many people lost their lives during the fighting. Day in and day out, the situation grew worse. I would find myself many times, in a place where I could hear nothing but the sound of shooting and bombing. I was in places where many were killed, but not me. WHY? WAS I A HERO?”
Paul Nzau
“… the task at home became too much for him for he was supposed to being father and mother at the same time. After much thought he reached a conclusion: eliminate us all plus himself. We are six in our family, five boys and one girl, so he went to the police armoury and took an automatic loaded with seven bullets. One for each of us, and the last for himself.”
"Buddy" Farris
“Farris was pronounced dead at 10:23 p.m. He was taken to the morgue, and, as workers rolled him down the hall, Farris lifted the blanket off himself.”
Johnathan Bond
"...a testimony that is guaranteed to keep a crowd's attention. On September 24, 1991, while driving on rain slick roads, an 18-wheeler pulled into his lane on a four lane road... After a few minutes of CPR, the paramedics said, ‘We can't do anything for him. He's dead.’”

”…when he hit a semi head on… He was dead at the scene… recounts what he saw in heaven as he left his mangled body behind.”
Timothy Abraham
“If it had not been for Dr. Patterson, I would have been history today. I was scheduled to be executed, and God saw that He had more work for me to do. So, he used Dr. Patterson in supernaturally rescuing my life.”

“My heart was beating fast, and then it stopped! I saw myself turning and falling very rapidly in a black tunnel!”
Caspar McCloud
“…and also showed me amazing reports from around the world where the Lord was still doing miracles, healing people, and even raising some from the dead.”
