    Yes, it was when my previous co-worker who is a Muslim asked about the Bible and Jesus Christ’s existence. It was a calm and insightful conversation.

    When I was young in Christ someone told me that the Bible does not tell us to worship Christ. I was not able to answer the question because I was new to the faith. I later learned through reading of the Bible, that Jesus is worthy of our worship because He is God.

    There was a time when I encountered two people who presented me about their religion. I tried to listen to what they said but back in my mind I wanted to correct what they were saying. I let them finish their presentation and give answer based on what the Bible is telling.

    Yesterday morning, I got into an Uber and the driver asked me where I was headed. I told him that I was on my way to church and that’s when he began sharing his thoughts with me on religion and the hypocrisy of Christians. I was put in a position where I was given the opportunity to defend my faith, but as a new Christian my knowledge is still quite limited so I tried to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit by responding to the driver with kindness and compassion. I was able to reference certain scriptures in the Bible but ultimately the most effective tool I used was sharing my testimony — of the miraculous encounters I have had with Jesus. I spoke about what Jesus has done for me and how He changed my life. By the end of the car ride, the driver’s entire demeanour had changed and it seemed like his heart had softened. In that moment I realized that we can’t make convince someone to follow Jesus but we can give them an account for why we believe and hope in the Lord.

    Yes, I was at work discussing a book on Spiritual disciplines with another coworker when someone entered the discussion to say why you are wasting time with Religion talk. Well, I went on to explain I am a faithful follower of Christ, and they were not a believer. After some short talk we agreed to disagree on the subject. A couple weeks later, the same person who questioned me was now seeking more information about God. We have slowly entered into what i am hoping will be a transformation of the nonbeliever’s heart to a life of Christ.
