A Ramadhan Revelry?

A big thank you and WTG!!! to the 50 folks who attended the afternoon “Confessions Of A Bridge Builder” presentation at the University of Toledo Law Center Auditorium last week. We were joined by Toledo's FOX 36 news [did anyone record it that night?] and about 10 of our Muslim brothers and sisters. Who invited us to eat their evening Ramadhan meal with them at their mosque.

After receiving a warm welcome from over 400 Muslims who had fasted all day, together we devoured the evening meal. And because our guest speaker Bryan Gallant previously confessed using quotations from the Quran and the Bible that: 1) Hatred is not a virtue 2) Labels are too easily hijacked 3) God is bigger than we think 4) We argue more about faith than live it and the 5) Sounds of our iPods are drowning out eternity, that evening THEY invited US back so Bryan could give the same presentation he gave to 60 of us to 600 of them in their mosque sometime soon!!!

Did God meet us at the mosque?!! You better believe it!!! Click either graphic for more info.

Thanks for pushing us to learn new concepts about who God loves, which gives powerful new meaning for Galatians 3:28.

In Him the distinctions between Jew and Gentile, slave and free man, male and female, disappear; you are all one in Christ Jesus.
