Hey Sisters and Brothers in Christ,

I hope your day was blessed.  I had a good day on campus, though in the 4 hours I was there I only went through the Gospel with 4 people and 2 proved to be Christians. But I finally got to have a serious discussion with Andu, a guy I have known for few years from the Hapkido class I took at COD.  He is from Eritrea and is Muslim in name only “Because my dad is,” he would say. Though in his tribe there are both Christians and Muslims. His uncle is a Christian. I told him he would not go to Heaven today and gave him a Rose Publication (laminated accordion hand out) he wanted on 100 Prophecies Christ fulfilled.  I also explained problems with the Quran. We are good friends by now, and though I have talked about Christianity several times, this was the first good exchange we had on it. He also took a Bible study on Jesus claiming to be God. I was really glad to get to talk with him and have prayed for him some in the past. So I’ll be praying for Him.

I also went through the Gospel with a mixed race guy with thick hair that sat on his head like a Russian winter cap, “You can call me Junior,” he said. He wore sweats and had a short beard.  I could tell he was sincerely interested in knowing the truth.  He simply thought he deserved to go to Heaven. He took the booklet from me, but his heart had been hardened by catholic school which he was forced to attend, and he was not sure he believed Jesus was God. He took the student edition of The Case for Christ to read and a Bible study.

I spent several hours talking to a Christian guy, Darell, a good looking black guy with full features and row braids that came down to his shoulders. He had a lot of questions concerning issues of American life. He was a solid guy and when we finally parted (so I could make my chiropractor appointment) he said, “Thanks for this” (about out time together).  I thought college ministry would be about these kind of long discipleship talks more often than it usually is for me. Most are more brief and evangelistic. It was a good time.

So thanks for your prayers for the ministry and for evangelism today if you had a chance. I think I got a couple of good seeds planted and gave some aid.

In Him,

Bob
