Dive into the frantic fight for survival in this riveting, firsthand account of the devastating earthquake and tsunami that hit northeastern Japan in 2011. In the Event: Living with an Earthquake takes readers onto the heaving, rolling streets as the earth cracked on the day that changed the lives of millions forever. It's an account of an unthinkable disaster, and a testimony to hope and faith as it challenges readers to consider their approach to life overall.

Mark B. Jabusch, a Christian missionary, lived with his family in Japan during the seismic events of 2011, and in this narrative, he chronicles the days leading up to the quake as well as the aftermath during the months that followed. Through his own testimony and the stories of others, he bears witness to the power of community and individual resilience in a crisis, and to the role of faith in his own life as he navigated this unknown territory.

A journey into human resilience, the strength of community, and steadfast faith, In the Event is an engaging cross between a personal memoir and an informational guide on surviving and recovering from a natural disaster. Educational and inspiring, this book is for readers of all faiths and backgrounds!
