Rev. Gaddy and his guests delve into how each of their faith traditions handles grieving, why a loving God would allow something so terrible to happen, and why we treat this differently than violence elsewhere in the world. Though their faith traditions are different, the panelists found several common themes about how to minister through a tragedy.
Also on the show: Barbara Lerman-Golumb, Executive Director of the Coalition on the Environment and Jewish Life on the celebration of Earth Day this Sunday.
