A couple of weeks ago, we were able to be a part of a get together that featured a very interesting mix of people. There were four Americans, two Nigerians, a Russian, a Brit, a Malaysian couple, and one Czech. The best part about the gathering for me was the topic: peace. Our Czech leader was discussing some Bible verses about how to have peace during troubled times. The group was comprised of mostly university students who were right in the middle of exam week, so finding peace was a spot on subject.
The mix of nationalities was so wonderful to see because it showed me again just how universal the gospel really is. No one is excluded. All are welcome.
It was very encouraging to see this young Czech woman speaking so passionately about her relationship with Christ. So many of the Czechs I have spoken with view Christianity as only an American belief. It is nice to see first hand that it is not. Christianity is for anyone who will believe.
