As you know, Titus Project has three teams out teaching and preaching in Romania, Ukraine and the CIS.
Here is a short story from our team in Ukraine:
“But why did Jesus have to die?” asked the woman on my left with a puzzled frown. The others, suddenly curious, leant forward along the length of the long conference table between us. “Excellent question” I began “Well…” The man to my right, a local psychologist, listened aptly with a considering expression on his face. Another woman further down the table, a linguist and employee of the Korean embassy, started taking notes. The young man beside her, a student at the polytechnic institute, wore a small, knowing smile as one of the three Christians in the room. This was our second week together since our team had agreed to take over the bible study through the Gospel of Luke hosted by the Ukrainian Education Center and I couldn’t have been more enthusiastic. We had been in the eleventh chapter of Luke for two weeks, first considering Jesus’ response to accusations that he was casting out demons by the power of Beelzebub and now discussing Jesus’ claims to be greater than both a Prophet and Philosopher in the following passage where the Jews ask him for a sign…
What a privilege it is for us to be able to teach the Bible, to ordinary babushka’s and high profile doctors and diplomats! The truth will set them free!
