  • Where Was God?: An NYPD first responder’s search for answers following the terror attack of September 11th 2001

    Andrew G. Nelson

    eBook (Huntzman Enterprises, Sept. 7, 2018)
    September 11th, 2001 - It was a morning just like any other, but it would soon turn into a national tragedy; leaving many to ponder the question: “Where Was God?”Some have asked it in earnest, while others have asked it derisively, but regardless of the intent it is a question that I truly believe deserves to be answered. As an NYPD first responder, it was certainly one that I personally wrestled with in the aftermath of that horrific day. I mean, if God really loves us, than how could he have allowed something so horrific to have happened?I decided to use my experience, as a former detective and examine this question. What started out as a search to find an answer, as to where God was on 9/11, soon turned into an investigation to establish if God exists.What people are saying about this book.“Early in my journey with God I read ‘The Case for Christ’ [Strobel] and I was disappointed. It was not persuasive and frankly left more food for the cynic in me. Your book felt like a real case for Christ, as if a seasoned trial lawyer was putting on a case.””If you are a skeptic and you think God is all BS. Give this book a chance, it will very possibly change your life forever.”“I have read this book during a time of personal struggle and pain. While I try to make a correct decision in life, this book has shined light and reminded me of what I need to do.”Perfect for readers of Lee Strobel, Todd Burpo, Mary C. Neal and Don Piper.
