70 Spiritual Conversations

Before and After

“The only problem with this strategy is that no wants to stop.”

Before and After“After sending my video, one conversation was particularly encouraging. Geological sciences major Karyn commented, "Because I was not raised in a Christian environment, I do not always understand what exactly it means to be Christian or what God's role is in people's lives, and hearing stories like yours always helps me look at Christianity in an understanding perspective." I used that as an opportunity to share the gospel with her through the Falling Plates video. She said she enjoyed and understood the video for the most part, but wanted more information on what it means by "eternal life." I explained the Bible's definition of eternal life in John 17:3 and how it is all about choosing faith in Christ, not works.

Having this conversation with someone who does not believe in Christ, and to see her understand Jesus's message and truth (even if she may not believe it yet) was incredible. I am so thankful that I had the opportunity to share my story in such a simple, personal way, and continue spiritual conversations.” ~Annie
