Sharing Jesus "Evangelism looks a lot different here. It’s not as hard as I thought to have opportunities to share the gospel. Almost everyone here has some sort of belief in the spirit world, and they’re interested to know what I think. Most people tell me that they’re Muslims, but it seems to me that they’re only Muslims because their family has always been Muslim. Once you’re friends with someone, they generally don’t mind hearing about Jesus." - Craig, 31

She's studying maths at the university and told me she had been talking to some German people prior to boarding the bus.

 Sharing Jesus with Muslim neighbours
As Arkin and Ramil approached the taxi stand, they didn’t realise the help they needed was so close at hand. Central Asians hate arriving anywhere as strangers. These national pastors felt alone and bewildered as they visited a neighbouring country to share Jesus with Muslims.
