Sharing With Muslims

Yesterday, I shared about my Muslim neighbor, Taleek*...

...and how the Lord has allowed he and I to become friends. 

I was also encouraged when, earlier this month, another Muslim inmate, Abdul,* sat next to me in the class I attend on weekday afternoons. He began asking me about the book I had on my desk, MORE THAN A CARPENTER by Josh McDowell. This is a "classic" work well known to many Christians. Josh McDowell specializes in the field of "apologetics," where he vigorously explains and defends the life and teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ. ​

I felt led by the Holy Spirit to ask Abdul if he would like the book. We had been whispering. I saw him look around the room to see if anyone was watching us. When he was satisfied that no other prisoners were paying us any mind, he told me yes. I gave him this little book which he quickly stuffed into his school bag. ​

I know Abdul will be reading this in secret, and God is going to speak to this man's mind and heart. A seed will be planted. ​

And still another Muslim, Hameed,* came to me and started asking questions about what I believe in. We had a good conversation. My heart was pleased when he told me that his sister attends a large evangelistic church in Brooklyn. I know she has been praying for him, and his heart is already being softened, although he doesn't know it.
