The Awesome Atheist at the Soccer Game

Last night I had the privilege to join students from the Gospel For Asia School of Discipleship at an outreach at the FC Dallas game in Frisco, TX.  We handed out hundreds of tracts and were able to share the Gospel one on one with a number of people.

This afternoon, I received a voice message on our ministry phone number from someone who had been at the game. She introduces herself as “an awesome athiest”. Have a listen to her message here:

Isn’t it interesting that she seems to think that we are wasting our lives by telling people about Jesus. At the same time she has no problem with her husband raising her child in the Jewish faith. If she is right and there is no God, then wouldn’t raising your child in the Jewish faith also be a waste of time?

I hear this argument from time to time: that we are wasting out time. I respond by asking the person “what is the worst that can happen?”

If I am wrong and there is no God, then I have spent my life living by a good moral standard, talking to people and getting to know them. When I die, I’d end up in the ground.

But, if they are wrong and I am right, then at the end of their life they will face God, be judged guilty for their sin and then spend eternity in Hell as a punishment. Talk about a wasted life!

I am glad that she called. It shows that the tracts are effective. People read them. They stir something inside of them. Probably the kid is troubled by it because his conscience is speaking to him condemning him. Pray for this child and his parents that they will all be saved!

On another note, the GFA students also went to the Allen American’s and Dallas Stars

hockey games. One of them handed one of our tract club members a Hoppy Easter tract.  This picture was posted by that tract club member onto my Facebook wall. She was encouraged to receive it and has told me that she’d like to join us in future outreaches. So that was an encouraging end to the day of witnessing!
