“You’ll Get Through This is a message for the times,” says David Moberg, Senior Vice President and Group Publisher of Books, HarperCollins Christian Publishing. “This is a season when people need hope and no one is better suited to bring that message in a creative and dynamic way than Max.”

Promoted as a “night of remembrance and hope,” the event was attended by hundreds of people directly affected by three tragic events: the 9-11 attack, the Sandy Hook shooting and Hurricane Sandy.
