Father Benedict Groeschel, C.F.R., addresses all these questions in his new book, The Cross at Ground Zero. He reassures us that the iron cross, found at the world trade center, leads to the cross of Jesus which stands at the center of all pain, all suffering, indeed all history. He explains that Jesus did not come to take away suffering. He came to sanctify suffering by His presence. He was at Ground Zero in the World Trade Center. He will be with you in your own personal Ground Zero whether it is the death of a child, a cancer diagnosis, the loss of a job.
Product text reads: The heart of a world seeking freedom and peace. We are the east and the west, the north and the south-one people embracing many. We are a legacy of courage with a destiny for greatness. We are history and prophecy, liberty and home, refuge and vision. So we lift up our light as a beacon of hope, with this prayer to our God and Creator: Make us a people who care and who comfort. Let us reach out a welcoming hand to the homeless, the helpless, the hurting, the hungry. Let us fulfill God's great plan for our land. Let our gift to the nations be love. --B.J. Hoff Quantity
