1) Is the Bible anti-women?
2) Creation vs. Evolution
3) The Da Vinci Code
4) God and suffering (Why is there evil and suffering if God is supposed to be good?)
5) God and sports
And then, Wed. night, we had our big event (even made it on CTV!) called Jesus: Lord, Liar, Lunatic or Legend. Tony Costa came in to talk about the arguments that people have. Basically, some people don't believe that Jesus really existed, or some people believe he existed, but then think he was lying or just plain crazy when he said he was God, and then some people believe He is the Son of God. So yeah, it was neat, we had over 200 people come out to hear about it. The coolest thing was that a girl in my Chinese class came out, and now I get to talk to her about all this spiritual stuff. I love talking about spiritual things! Ahahahaha.
The weirdest part of the whole week actually happened before it, when we were handing out flyers to people about the events. I mean, I've been handing out flyers for events for 5 years, and this time, I wasn't even talking or anything. I was just standing there, with my arm outstretched with a flyer in it, trying to make eye-contact with people...and a girl walked by, looked at me, and SWORE at me! It was pretty un-nice, and frankly, really just rude, really. I was taken aback at first, but it didn't really upset me. I mean, some people get upset when there's talk about God, but people get REALLY upset when it's about Jesus. So yeah, I think that was to be expected, I guess. Still rude, though. But yeah, the great thing was that it made me think about what Jesus must have gone through. I mean, they wanted to CRUCIFY Him. How much did they hate him?! He must have heard some really hurtful things being said against Him, and yet He chose to endure all of that....wow.
Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.
John 15:13
