When I was a skeptical student, my
sometimes-relentless questions gave my Campus Crusade for Christ
friends at Duke University plenty of practice! I wanted to know
if Christianity was true. After trusting Christ as Savior, I
still had questions.
Bob Prall, the local Campus Crusade director, took interest in me. At first his answers irritated me, but as I thought them through they began to make sense. For two years I followed him around campus, watching him interact. Today, as I am privileged to encounter inquisitive people around the globe, much of my speech and manner derive from my mentor. Bob Prall taught me to say, “I don't have answers to every question. But if my conclusion about Jesus is wrong, I have a bigger problem. What do I do with the evidence for His resurrection, His deity, and the prophecies He fulfilled? And what do I do with changed lives, including my own?” Most of what I learned from Bob is in his Drive-Time CDs. By listening to them, young people (high school age on up) can be mentored by Bob -- just as I was over thirty years ago. I’m confident this will help solidify their faith and prepare them for a lifetime of sharing the good news about Jesus.
