Today, I, along with the entire nation remembers 9/11. I will never forget driving to Tyndale & hearing the reports coming in on the radio of such confusion, disbelief & horror. Once I arrived at work, I went straight to my boss’s office & said something strange is going on in our country & we tried to get online but everything was backed up. Eventually the entire company was called to the chapel where we watched the news, read Scripture & prayed. Later that night, there was an eerie silence in the sky. Sam & I live in the suburbs of Chicago & our townhouse at the time was along a frequent plane route leading planes to O’Hare, but they had cancelled all remaining flights for the day.

The above art honors some of our country’s heroes. The firefighters, police, and military who truly sacrificed their lives for the behalf of others. The mere thought of the firefighters going in that day chokes me up every time, as my grandfather, father, & brother have been or are currently serving their city as firefighters.

All art is available in the new shop with FREE shipping for a limited time.

The above books were created by Tyndale within weeks of 9.11. I had the honor of designing Finding God’s Peace in Perilous Times and my friend, Jenny, designed Let’s Roll the story of Todd Beamer who truly was a hero that day & acted like Jesus for others, sacrificing his own life for others. If you have not read it, I encourage you to find a copy!

Grace & Peace,

Julie
