Atlanta Providential Sun, 04 May 2008 09:47:00 -0800 File: atlanta14march084may08.mp3 Size: 12.97 MB Brainerd Church of Christ Minister Bruce Wooley was among the thousands at the Georgia Dome when an EF-2 tornado hit downtown Atlanta on March 14, 2008 during the Southeastern Conference tournament quarterfinal between Mississippi State and Alabama. "Providential" is the word used by Mr. Wooley to describe the event where Alabama Forward, Mykal Riley hit a 3-pointer with no time left to force overtime, and perhaps save hundreds of lives in the process. In this Tornado Witness Radio interview, Minister Bruce Wooley gives a detailed account of what happened inside the dome during the tornado and also tells of other tornados he has witnessed in his lifetime. We also ask Mr. Wooley about references to tornados in the bible. |
