Mustafa and his brother grew up in a devout Muslim household, but as they grew older, they became increasingly unhappy with that religion, especially with the extreme versions they saw lived out around them. They both turned to atheism, but his brother eventually met a believer and started following Jesus. Mustafa stayed an atheist for years, having heard about Jesus many times but never making up his mind one way or another. Last month, he met up with a believer who shared the gospel with him and showed him the necessity of the cross. He had never understood before who Jesus was and why He had to die. After sitting for some minutes in silence, he told his friend that he agreed with everything that was being shared with him. He prayed right then and there to express his desire to follow Jesus! Please pray for Mustafa as he is being discipled by a local believer, asking that he will stand firm in his faith and learn what it looks like to follow Jesus wholeheartedly.
