LTWT 051: Sharing the Word with Wisdom, Love, and Respect

Description

“We have to approach witnessing with love and no other motive. We’re not there to get anything from anyone. We just want to go out there with an attitude of giving and with love and with the goal of being ambassadors and reconciling people back to God.” In this episode, Taylor Thurlow interviews Rev. Basil Makharita about sharing God’s Word with people of different belief systems than Christianity. Basil, who grew up Muslim, tells his personal account of getting to know God, and the man who took the time to answer his questions and walk him through the Scriptures. He also gives important insight into what approaches were edifying to him, and which ones were not, as Christians spoke God’s Word to him over the years. And he shares things we should keep in mind when we speak God’s Word specifically to people of different religions. Through genuine love, care, and humility, someone showed Basil God’s nature.
