You're a Christian, right?

The young man asked... I could see this young Buddhist looking at me intently as I began to share with him. I asked him, 'Tell me about your family.' He said, 'I'm from Malaysia.' 'Why are you in Taiwan?' I asked. 'I came for schooling.' As we began to talk more I asked him if his family was Buddhist also. He said no, he had two sisters who were Christians. I thought to myself, I have found a key! So I continued to share about Jesus with him. He was very interested and wanted to talk more later. These little conversations happen at 'The Rock' coffee shop all the time, opportunities to share Jesus with people from all over Taiwan and the world. One conversation, seeds are planted, and they are one step closer to knowing Jesus. It's also a great place to have a great cup of tea!

Jesus, among other "gods"...
As we got close to the temple the air was filled with smell of insence burning in the temple. So many idols holding poeple in bondage and fear. As we walked into the temple I felt like I was walking into another time. The walls and ceiling were black from decades of idol worship, a strong hold for the people here. As I looked out across the temple court yard, behold a Church right next door. As people came to worship idols at the temple, they would see the church. The thought came to mind, 'Jesus among other gods'. I began to pray that Jesus' name would be known here, that He is the name above all names that He has come to set the captives free. I learned a lot that week about Asia and I found myself having a great deal of respect for the Asian believers as I learned that many have to give up important family traditions and customs. Jesus is not just one among many gods but but he is the true God, the Creator God, who desires all to know Him, and how He loves us.
