My co-worker Amiri came to me for counsel and guidance in his new walk with God. “I don’t feel I can play in my band anymore because it compromises my relationship with Christ. How can I tell my band member about my new faith and convictions without turning him off from knowing God for himself?”
I admired the humility Amiri displayed in seeking counsel and was happy to advise him from the Scriptures as well as my own past experiences. When I came to Christ at the age of 22, the majority of my friendships were with non-Christians. Although my intentions were genuine, I made many blunders in sharing my faith with them. God had now graciously given me an opportunity to share those experiences with Amiri to help him avoid the same mistakes I myself had made.
