\n

Kevin studies civil engineering in Nepal. He is one of only\nthree Christians in his college. His friends are mostly Hindus and like to ask\nhim difficult questions about his faith \u2013 the kind of questions that could\neasily unsettle you in your convictions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

A couple of months ago, the questioning intensified. And Kevin\nhad an idea: he decided to write down all the questions his friends were\nasking. Then he took along his list of questions to an interactive event on\nworldview, organised by NBCBS, the IFES movement in Nepal. Kevin learned there about\napologetics and grew in confidence to tackle the difficult questions he was\nasked by his friends. Since then he\u2019s even started writing blog articles on\napologetics to share with other Christian students, so that they too can defend\ntheir faith when it\u2019s challenged by difficult questions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Let\u2019s pray together to our God who hears:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
  • Thank God for Kevin and the ministry of NBCBS. Pray that Kevin\u2019s friends would have their eyes opened to the truth of the gospel.
    <\/li>
  • Pray that all the Christian students of NBCBS would be able to engage with difficult questions with confidence and competence.
    <\/li>
  • Pray for the planning of the national NBCBS winter retreat. Pray that students from many different colleges and universities would attend.<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n
    \n

    Thanks for praying with us!<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"featured_media":9535,"template":"","area":[670,463],"theme":[1208],"class_list":["post-9555","prayerline","type-prayerline","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","area-nepal","area-south-asia","theme-evangelism"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nLearning to tackle difficult questions · IFES Prayerline<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Kevin studies civil engineering in Nepal.
