					<description><![CDATA[Oh my goodness, Dan! What a brilliant analogy that this baseball fan loved!

We are Jesus&#039; relief pitchers! The Coach (God the Father) put Jesus in as the starting pitcher. Then, He called Him back to the dugout, and He called us from the bullpen (to be Jesus&#039; hands and feet). When we&#039;re done throwing our pitches, the Coach is going to call us back to the dugout, where Jesus is sitting, waiting for us and we want to join him.

I&#039;m proud to be part of Jesus&#039; bullpen!

A question about the casting of lots. The Apostlea frames it that God was choosing, but you ascribed it to the luck of the lots. Doesn&#039;t the concept of luck negate God&#039;s choice? I don&#039;t know what to make of this.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Hey Dan, 

Excellent reflection.

One small error. Although depicted in many great works of art, Caravaggio&#039;s masterpiece being one the more common ones, as falling off a horse, there is no record of this occurring to St Paul during his conversion in the Bible or otherwise. Chalk one up for artistic license.

Have a great day, 

Mark]]></description>
