Pray for Turkey

One of our missionaries sent us the following e-mail from “Pastor Carlos” in Turkey. Read below and pray.

Dear brothers and sisters,

I’m writing this update to ask you for some URGENT prayer. As you know my Apologetics book of about 800 pages is being published; it answers Islamic objections from a well-known Muslim writer against the Bible.

Today a National TV channel (HaberTürk) called me to ask me to appear at a live TV debate program this Friday November 20th at 8:00pm local time [1pm eastern standard time]. The program is about the reliability of the New Testament, and will last 2 hours. I will be debating with an Islamic Scholar and a journalist.

Many times in these types of programs awkward and uncomfortable questions may be brought up. So please pray for wisdom and the help of the Holy Spirit to be able to give good answers and an effective witness. I can’t emphasize enough what an important witnessing tool this program will be because it will reach to millions of living rooms.

This will also be an opportunity to advertise the book which is a solid document on the reliability of the Bible. Don’t forget that many souls are looking for Jesus in Turkey but they don’t know if they can trust in His words.

Please pray as well that this won’t have an adverse effect for obtaining my work permit which is being processed right now after our application last month.

I would appreciate it if you could forward this letter to any prayer partners or prayer chains that you may have. Thank you in advance.
