The following email was received at National Office this week:

“Hello, 

My name is Amy and I live in Swindon. Last week I was staying at the Britannia Country House Hotel, Manchester, whilst at the Youth for Christ Conference.

One day I used the pool and then used the hot tub, a man was also in the hot tub and he asked me if I was “with the conference” to which I replied with “yes” he then asked if we were all Christians to which I again answered yes. He then commented on how the world is in a mess right now and basically asked how God could allow so much suffering. I ended up having a massive conversation with him about creation, sin, Jesus’ birth/death/resurrection, other religions, revelation and the authenticity of the Bible!

At the end of the conversation he asked if he could get a Bible and I said I would find him one, so I got dressed went to my hotel room and took the Gideons Bible from the room and gave it to him!

I wanted to let you know so that you hear a good story, can pray for him and replace the Bible, hope this was ok! 

Thanks, 

Amy”
