Synopsis

Excerpt from The Princeton Seminary Bulletin, 2002, Vol. 23

Now the point is not who said that. So do not believe it or dismiss it because the author was Karl Barth. The point is that it represents an appropriate attitude of mind in the presence of the God who ascends to the throne and exercises sovereignty over the earth through his chosen mediator.

I do not presume to speak for each of you, but I tell you that when I witnessed the implosion of the Twin Towers last Tuesday morning and realized the number of people who were losing their lives before my very eyes, I did not want to hear from the announcer or the political pundits who would soon fill the airwaves. I did not want to hear from the President of the United States or the Secretary of State or the Secretary of Defense. In that moment I wanted and needed to hear God speak - the interpretative word, the redeeming word, the hopeful word. And so have countless others who turned immediately to the churches for impromptu prayer services.
