I love how God has used the online community to develop and strengthen ties that might not have happened any other way. God is so BIG and the internet is just another way for Him to show up. Thanks for sharing.

Discipleship is what our website is all about but we are always praying and seeking other ways and ideas to promote discipling with others. I want to pray about some of what you said and see how we might fit it in as well. God bless.

There are four things about it that really stand out to me…

1) There are so many ways you could have responded, but you listened for the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

2) Often we try to get a person to receive Christ as their savior the first time we talk with them. But coming to a point where a person is ready to trust God and surrender their life to Him, is usually a process. The 25 day reading plan allowed for God to work over time.

3) You demonstrated a real love for & commitment to "Karen" by not just suggesting the 25 day Bible reading plan but offering to do it with her.

4) You didn't try to convince her with your own words, but rather pointed her to scripture and allowed God to speak to her directly.

Way to go! And thanks for the lessons learned from this story.
