Linda and I listened late last night to an excellent podcast by Al Mohler, president of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, on the killings in Newtown, Conn. That podcast, which was a strong help to us, included a touching interview with a pastor in Newtown who is a Ph.D. student at Southern and had been ministering to parents of the slain children. You may listen to it here.
Mohler also has posted a truth- and grace-filled commentary here that is similar to the podcast. I commend it to you. I think it will be helpful. His post includes this important comment:
"In the face of such horror, we are driven again and again to the cross and resurrection of Christ, knowing that the reconciling power of God in Christ is the only adequate answer to such a depraved and diabolical power."
John Piper of Bethlehem Baptist Church in Minneapolis and Desiring God has posted two shorter, yet still helpful, items. You may read them here and here.
