Lisa details her journey since 9/11 in the new book Called: "Hello, This Is Mrs. Jefferson. I Understand Your Plane Is Being Hijacked" (Moody). She wrote the book to honor those on Flight 93 and to remind Christians to make themselves available to serve God in even the most unexpected roles. "God has an assignment for each of us that only we can fulfill," she says. "I wasn't prepared for my task on 9/11. But when God called, I went out on faith. I'm going to be ready the next time He calls on me."
