Celebrating October 31st

It may surprise you that I celebrate October 31st.  Then again it probably doesn't.  In my pastoral prayer, I gave thanks to God for what happened on October 31st in 1517.  I gave thanks that Martin Luther nailed the 95 Theses on the door of the Wittenberg Chapel, and that the Lord used this event to help spark a recovery of the biblical gospel all across Europe and the World.

Each October 31st I enjoy re-reading the short article that "This Day In History," from the History Channel puts out remembering the day.  You can read it here, and join me in celebrating Reformation Day!
