Edward* serves in a closed country where there are very few Christians. Pray that God will bless his local language acquisition as he spends two weeks in the capital city to study the language more intensively. Give thanks that after many Bible discussions and working through large differences in worldview, his friend Jason* agreed that he now understood the Christian view on sin and why the penalty of sin is death. Praise God for this huge step forward in Jason’s understanding. Ask God to help Jason see and understand how only Jesus could perfectly pay the price for sin and that he did so on the cross.
