Synopsis

Rowan Williams was close by when the terrorists struck New York and the World Trade Center fell. In this short meditation, he takes his personal experience of the horror as the starting point for some broader reflections on the feelings of powerlessness which prompted the attacks, and the appropriate Christian response to this rage—understanding where the rage comes from. There are no easy answers, but this little meditation aims to give hope that risk and reconciliation are a new way to avoid the relentless spiral downward to more and worse aggression.
