Reprise | Rev. Dr. Stuart Hoke, Surviving 9/11 in Manhattan at Trinity Wall Street

Up in Your Business with Kerry McCoy

Ep 261 | Aired 9/10/2021 Today on Up In Your Business with Kerry McCoy, we revisit a past interview with respect and remembrance of all those whose lives changed forever on 9/11. We all remember where we were when, 20 years ago, two jet planes were hi-jacked and flown into the Twin Towers in New York City. My guest today does too. Reverend Dr. Stuart Hoke emerged from the New York subway in the financial district to see the sky raining clothes and debris. He walked down the street and stood alongside many other onlookers and gawked upwardly, confused as the second plane hit the tower. He then ran for his life as jet fuel spilled into the streets. Listen to him recount the next surreal hour and hear firsthand the true story of how the day unfolded as people found shelter and comfort in his company and church. The day of 9/11 would prove to be the largest naval evacuation in our history. In addition to being a priest, he is an outspoken 12 stepper. No, that is not the name of a dance step, though it would be a good one. Revered Stuart Hoke has lived a life of sobriety for 20+ years and proudly shouts the good news from the roof top and the pulpit. Just hearing this eloquent man will make you want to be a better person and give thanks for all you have.
