There are three ways we know everything we know (called “channels of epistemology” by philosophers): the rational, the practical, and the intuitive. You do math rationally, you start your car practically (unless you’re an automotive engineer, in which case you do so rationally), and you like someone intuitively. All three apply to our conversation today.
"It was complete chaos." Brian Branco was with five co-workers on the morning of September 11, 2001. He and one other person in his group survived. Hear his story and others today, as we remember 9/11.
Today is the only anniversary in American history known simply by a number. A few days ago, two more victims of the attack on the World Trade Center were identified through DNA technology. A total of 2,753 people were killed in the towers and planes, many of whom have yet to be identified. What are your emotions this morning? What would you like me to say on this hard day?
Let’s take a moment to reflect on three attributes of God that are especially relevant today.
A Greek Orthodox Church in New York City reopened this week after it was destroyed during the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001.
Former President Donald Trump made an appearance at worship leader Sean Feucht's "Let Us Worship" tour event last week. The event was held in honor of those who perished or lost a loved one in the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
In the months after 9/11, a well-known Christian apologist confidently announced that postmodernism was dead. After witnessing the evil of that day, no one, he suggested, would embrace a worldview that denied absolute truth or morality. He was wrong.
In the aftermath of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, we wrestled with the age-old question: Why does God allow so much evil in the world? Twenty years later, we continue to ask: Where was God on September 11, 2001? I believe he was where he has always been: with us.
In an interview with Christian Headlines, Fox News journalist Chris Wallace reflects on how the world changed after 9/11.
In the 20 years since 9/11, every country on earth has faced many trials and hardships. Terrorists or natural disasters or pandemics may open gaping wounds and inflict great pain. But, as Christians, with the Psalmist, we can say, “Come and hear, all you who fear God; let me tell you what he has done for me” (Ps. 66:16).
As we consider the twentieth anniversary of 9/11 tomorrow, let’s close the week by identifying four lessons from that tragic day that show us how much we need our Master’s leading and care today.
