Today I met a young professing Christian named John. He made a b-line straight for my corner at FSU and came with a bunch of great questions. John said his dad sends him and his immediate family daily scripture, worship and prayer guides. Each Sunday his dad does a Zoom call Bible study with their whole extended family – whoever will join in.
John was told when he was younger to read the Bible and when he got in trouble he would have to read a chapter and then write a report about it.
He never really understood the Bible he was told to read because of the KJV old archaic words and also not being born again.
John now has a baby boy on the way and is beginning to see the wisdom in his Dad’s devotion to God’s Word. He said they used to live in the projects and all his friends would pick on him for having a devout Christian dad pushing so much Christianity on him but he now gets it.
I was able to give John a full ESV Bible because someone at my church gave me a box full of them to give out. Thank you Mason!! Pray for John. I can’t wait to meet his dad in heaven one day! His dad was truly faithful in trying to disciple his family.
