I S forward slash give. Thanks for considering. And now back to the show.

Today, we're finishing up our series, Miracles, Then and Now, and I want to begin with

something that you might be familiar with. Perhaps you're familiar with this phrase,

the Goldilocks zone? No. Okay, the habitable zone. I've been practicing saying habitable

all week. It's not an easy word to say. The Goldilocks on the habitable zone. This is the distance

from a star, the distance

from a star that where conditions are ideal for liquid water to exist on a planet's surface.

Okay, you may or may not remember this. And liquid water is important because liquid water

is what enables a planet to sustain life, because if it's too hot, the water boils away.

If the water is too cold, it freezes, it freezes, right?

So the good news for you and for me is planet Earth, planet Earth, it's not too hot,

it's not too cold, it's just right.

Okay, some of you got that right, because you may not remember science class,

but you remember Goldilocks and three bears. Okay, so anyway, so that's where this comes from.

The Goldilocks zone is the, we're in that orbit where it's the perfect distance and so consequently

our planet sustains life. So with that in mind, today, I want to talk about a different zone

that actually sets things up to happen that don't normally happen as well.

And we're going to call it, I just made this up, we're going to call it the miracle zone.

More on that in just a moment.
