Belated reflections on 9/11

Posted September 12th @ 3:45 pm by Andy Rau

Mikey’s right; it’s odd that we didn’t talk about 9/11 yesterday here at TC. So while it’s a bit late, I’ll point out the most moving 9/11 reflection I read yesterday: Graphing the End of a World by Rod Dreher. It’s a simple recounting of what he was doing and thinking when the towers fell.

For what it’s worth, one of the best essays addressing the spiritual elements of the 9/11 attacks—particularly the question of “where was God?”—is this article by Ravi Zacharias, written in 2002 when time had elapsed and more perspective on the event was possible.

Anybody else want to point out a 9/11 reflection or commentary that they read yesterday? Feel free to post links in the comment section below.
