How many tragedies are attributed to just being in the wrong place at the wrong time? Too many. Roy Hallums, author of Buried Alive, tells his story and points to the reason for his abduction was merely being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Hallums’ experience was so horrific that it is astounding that he not only survived but kept his sanity.
By the grace of God Hallums was reunited with his family a little less than a year after he was captured. While Hallums states that he was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time, I think he was exactly were he should have been. Because he was captured and held hostage for so long, his dramatic release and inspirational story has touched millions of lives. If Hallums had not been captured, would he have made as big of an impact as what he did? Probably not.
