 August 6 is Hiroshima Day. People are taking note this year because of the movie Oppenheimer.  I remember August 6, 1945. I was baptized August 6, 1939. I was seven years old the day the U.S. dropped the bomb on Japan. Little did we know then what devastation a nuclear bomb would bring.  Coincidentally our third son, Kirk, was baptized on August 6, 1969. Now 54, he and I do fully realize the devastation of war in a nuclear age. We work for peace, living out our baptisms of life in Jesus Christ.
