Hurricane Katrina

August 31st, 2005 | Comments (0) | Trackbacks (0) |

My thoughts and prayers are with all of the victims of Hurricane Katrina. If you haven’t heard yet, Katrina is the deadliest hurricane to hit the United States since 1969. The earlier link has lots of information.

The American Red Cross is organizing their biggest relief effort ever. For information on how you can get involved, visit their website.

Update:

I am very much interested in the theology of Hurricane Katrina. That is, where is God in all of this, and what (if any) is His role? I have begun to compile a list of commentaries that seek to answer these and other questions below. I will continue to update these as they become available.

  • Russell D. Moore, Christ and Katrina
  • John Piper, Was Katrina Intelligent Design?
  • Sam Storms, Katrina, Common Grace, and a Theory about the End of the Age
  • J. Grant Swank, Jr., Katrina: God’s Popular In A Hurricane
  • Rick Phillips, Was God Responsible for Hurricane Katrina?
  • Philip Ryken, Hurricane Katrina: What is the right way for a Christian to respond?
