I grew up in Houston in the 1960’s, so I grew up as a Houston Astros fan.  I was a fan even before they were called the Astros.  The team entered the league in 1962 as the Colt 45’s - a very cool name - but the name was changed in 1965, with the opening of the Astrodome.

What a difference one little inch makes.

On this day, five centuries ago, the world got its first look at an iconic work of art called “The Creation of Adam”. But the artwork wasn’t hanging on the wall of a gallery - it was 66 feet up on the ceiling of a church - the Sistine Chapel. When a pope dies, cardinals from around the world gather in this worship room to decide on the new one. And when they look heavenward, they see this creation by Michelangelo.

This past Wednesday, my church met in our Family Life Center for a "Fall Family Fellowship". There was a chili cook-off, a costume contest, a pumpkin carving competition, and a fine time was had by one and all. Our church is going through a time of transition right now - we're without a pastor. And in times of transition, times of change, family becomes especially important. When we face challenges, we reach out to family, to those we love - and they reach back to us.

On this day, in 1901, a bank robbery occurred in Paris, France. As they exited the bank, the thieves didn’t run away on foot, or ride off on horses. They made their escape in a new-dangled invention called an automobile. They got away in the very first “getaway car”!

So, since a car was used in a criminal act, does that make a car evil? Of course not. A thing is just a thing. It’s all in the way one chooses to use it that makes the difference. And the same thing can be true . . . with the Bible.
