Summary: Thought Provoking & Prophetic for the American Catholic
Review: Another fast & easy read by one of the most prolific authors in the Church today. Here Groeschel uses the symbolism of the steel cross discovered amid the wreckage of the WTC to alert American to the causes behind the attack. Groeschel is courageous enough to suggest that the immoral attitudes of our society, our de-valuing of human life and our exportation of concepts like abortion and euthenasia to the globe have given Muslim fundamentalists the ability to see us as an enemy.
The chapters are smartly organized and make bold assumptions that the path to peace is a return to our moral center.

Summary: A Small and Useful Book
Review: In the shock of September 11th, Fr. Benedict Groeschel has written a book to give us the Christian perspective on this horrible event. He calls us to gaze on the cross of Christ and to focus on our spiritual priorities so that we can be ready for any eventuality. He also issues a strong call for America to remedy the scandals of abortion and pornography so that we take our place in the world as a force for the culture of life. The small size of the book makes it a handy gift to help those we know deal with this event and its long term consequences.

Summary: Outstanding for evening respites of reflection
Review: This 143-page book is made up of four post-9/11 reflections on The Individual, The Church, The Country and The World - how the actions of each led up to the Muslims' attacks, and how each should respond to them.Although each chapter is brief, I recommend that you read only one at a time, to give yourself the opportunity to consider Fr. Groeschel's analyses and proposals. Very worthwhile, and highly recommended.

Summary: I wish the book was longer!
Review: This book will change your thinking on suffering and will wake you up to the cold reality of the world we live in. Groeschel doesn't mince words but offers help for those who suffer and to those that want to understand suffering. Groeshel is a treasure and I wish I had discovered him earlier. The only fault is the book is too short.
