(t’SWAN-ah) – Missionary Amanda Turner writes: “We recently came across two men sitting in their yard. Their circumstances looked pretty rough, with beer bottles scattered all around. But God has told us to share our faith boldly (Ephesians 6:19-20), and He worked in their hearts! One of them said that this was the first time in his whole life that he’d heard the gospel. They asked deep questions: ‘What is sin? What would I be repenting from?’ One said, ‘Now that I have heard this, I know that I am lost.’ They learned that choosing Jesus wasn’t going to be easy and that following Christ requires us to give up the things of this world, but they were ready to commit their lives to Him. They both prayed to receive Jesus. As we were leaving, we glanced back and saw that they were already starting to read the Bibles we had just given them. On Sunday morning, the two men walked into church with the Bibles in their hands and in their nicest clothes. Please join us in praying for these two men who chose to follow Jesus, for ‘everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved’ (Romans 10:13 ESV).”
