The tragic events of September 11, 2001, forever altered the American landscape, both figuratively and literally. Immediately after the jets struck the twin towers of the World Trade Center, Dennis Smith, a former firefighter, reported to Manhattan’s Ladder Co. 16 to volunteer in the rescue efforts. In the weeks that followed, Smith was present on the front lines, attending to the wounded, sifting through the wreckage, and mourning with New York’s devastated fire and police departments. This is Smith’s vivid account of the rescue efforts by the fire and police departments and emergency medical teams as they rushed to face a disaster that would claim thousands of lives. Smith takes readers inside the minds and lives of the rescuers at Ground Zero as he shares stories about these heroic individuals and the effect their loss had on their families and their companies. “It is,” says Smith, “the real and living history of the worst day in America since Pearl Harbor.” Written with drama and urgency, Report from Ground Zero honors the men and women who—in America’s darkest hours—redefined our understanding of courage.

Two days after the terrible attack against the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001, a union construction worker made a remarkable discovery within the ruins of World Trade Center 6. He saw a cross-like beam that stood on top of a heap of debris. He was stunned by its significance as were countless others after him. The purpose of this book is to trace the thirteen-year odyssey of this iconic cross from World Trade Center 6, to its position atop a concrete abutment within the World Trade Center during the recovery and rebuilding period, to the outside wall of St. Peter’s Roman Catholic Church across from Ground Zero and finally to the National 9/11 Memorial Museum where it remains today. The odyssey also includes a three-year legal battle whose appellate decision found that the Constitution of the United States does not preclude the presence of the Ground Zero cross within the National 9/11 Memorial Museum. This book is the author’s personal memoir. He is a Franciscan priest who, through many uncertain days, was the unofficial guardian of the Ground Zero cross. The concurrent themes of the book treat spirituality, grief sharing, selfless sacrifice, architecture, church history, biblical theology, and litigation. The book tells the story of many obstacles transcended on the way to the triumph of the Ground Zero cross.

Maybe you''re a believer, but you don''t feel like you could ever know God personally Maybe you''ve allowed man''s acceptance or approval to obscure how God feels about you. Maybe you used to believe, but you were never too sure Who or What it was you believed in. Maybe you''ve never been able to trust in something you can''t see or feel or touch. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF YOU COULD START ALL OVER AGAIN WITH GOD? Ground Zero’s unique MindFast™ will help you discover, without interference from anyone else, who God is, who you are, and who you and God are together. You will have the opportunity to reflect, to write your thoughts, and to explore ideas you may not have thought about before: ? God personally designed and created you. You are a God-thought. ? God cannot love you any more or less than He does right now. ? God is everywhere and in everything. ? God is waiting to share His thoughts with you, His most personal creation. Imagine what you could create with God as your partner. Ground Zero is designed to help you get to the place where you can know God, personally and intimately. Author Ron Cook writes. Everyone wants to be loved by God and to love God. Unfortunately, most people just don''t know where to start or, worse, they are afraid to start. Religion can some­times seem so complicated and overwhelming. Religious people can seem remote and unaware. But we don''t want to talk about religion—that is the last thing on our minds. We simply want to present a clear, simple message of who God is and what He means to us—a message that anyone and everyone can understand.

The traces of God can be found in the most unexpected places--an Atlanta slum, a pod of whales off the coast of Alaska, the prisons of Peru and Chile, the plays of Shakespeare, a health club in Chicago--yet many Christians have not only missed seeing God, they’ve overlooked opportunities to make him visible to those most in need of hope. In this enlightening book author Philip Yancey serves as an insightful tour guide for those willing to look beyond the obvious, pointing out glimpses of the eternal where few might think to look. Whether finding God among the newspaper headlines, within the church, or on the job, Yancey delves deeply into the commonplace and surfaces with rich spiritual insight. Finding God in Unexpected Places takes readers from Ground Zero to the Horn of Africa, and each stop along the way reveals footprints of God, touches of his truth and grace that prompt readers to search deeper within their own lives for glimpses of transcendence.
