During one of our live shows, where we hold open dialogues about the Gospel with Afghans, a young man joined the conversation.
He didn’t introduce himself, but instead said, “Consider me a blank slate.” He didn’t want me to assume his religion or beliefs, because he said he had come simply to learn.

He began asking thoughtful questions, one of which was: “If Jesus came into the world and looked like us, how can He still be God?”
I explained that the incarnation of Jesus is the greatest proof of God’s love. Just as a father would stoop low to lift his child in the midst of their pain, so God came near to us in Christ.
At the end of our conversation, he told me that he is still a Muslim, but admitted that I had given him much to think about. He promised to read the Gospel and continue exploring.
Please pray for him as he ventures forward in his search for God. May the blank slate of his heart be written on by the Word of God.
Please also pray for other 218 people who listened to this conversation! May the Lord soften theirs hearts to read his Word!
Thank you for continued support and prayers! This ministry would not be possible without you!
