Season 1 of The Trek Files wraps up with our oldest document yet! As Gene Roddenberry was writing for "Have Gun - Will Travel," he got the attention of an unlikely awards committee: the American Baptist Convention. Having seen a handful of Gene's episodes, the committee reached out to recognize his work as "presenting the Christian message" to TV viewers. How would a pre-Star Trek Gene have reacted?
