Reflections on September 11: Are We Still of Any Use?

The Rev. John H. Thomas, former UCC general minister and president, has shared reflections 20 years after the events of September 11. In his introduction, he writes:

On September 11, 2001, I was visiting church partners in Germany in my role as General Minister and President of the United Church of Christ. As we approach the twentieth anniversary of the terrorist attacks, and following the dramatic collapse of the US backed government in Afghanistan and the return of the Taliban to leadership of the country, I offer the following remembrances of my days in Düsseldorf and Berlin, along with theological reflections on the response of the church over the ensuing two decades.
