The world got its first look at deep space. For the Colson Center, I'm John Stone Street with

The Point. The level of detail and the photos from NASA's James Webb Telescope was staggering and

beautiful, revealing stars, cosmic cliffs, ultraviolet radiation from the birth of new stars.

It was amazing. Christians should always approach new technology with care. Just because we can do

something doesn't mean we should.

At the same time, this new telescope is an inspiring example of just what humans can do because of how God made us.

Technology can enable us to know and appreciate God's world to better tend the Garden of Creation.

It can also enable us to fight against God's design to try to control it as if we are God.

This telescope is a remarkable achievement, years of insight, ingenuity, and perseverance behind it,

all of which are God-given virtues. The fruit of this work rightly elicits all, and should drive

us to study and admire a vast and mysterious universe, and it should point us to the God who made it all.

Technology that leads us to appreciate creation to grow and wonder and learn more about it all,

that's a true gift.
