This morning I seeded an article by Rob Brendle, the founding pastor of Denver United Church, “My Take: Where was God in Aurora?” Brendle’s article was regarding an article exploring the reasons people submitted in response to an article by Stephen Prothero, a Boston University religion scholar, “Where Was God in Aurora?.”

Brendle wrote:

“The movie theater shooting in Aurora, Colorado shook me and the rest of the nation. Reading about the young and unsuspecting victims took me back to the dying girl in the ICU who had come to my church that day in 2007, in a an incident that left the two girls dead and injured several others. Back to the Columbine massacre a decade earlier that horrified the world and traumatized Colorado. And back to the aching questions that accompanied those previous incidents: Why did this happen? Where was God in all of it? How could a loving God allow this?”

I am interested in “Your Take: Where was God in Aurora?”
