September 11, 2001 will be remembered as the day that changed the modern world. As Franklin Roosevelt declared 60 years before, this too is a day that will live in infamy.

People are never abstract in his thinking, but are real souls in a real world with real struggles. Welch brings the full weight of Scripture to bear on his topic without ever reducing either the person or Scripture itself. No small task!
