‘I was afraid to get out and talk to people. I didn’t know where to look for help. Like many, I searched the internet, and stumbled across an advert for Szukając Boga.pl’ [Polish for ‘looking for God, searching for God’].
This is just one of the many thousands of responses to this new evangelistic course that has led to hundreds enrolling across Poland and many finding faith in Christ.
The need is obvious. It is estimated that 4 billion people around the world now have access to the internet. They browse it looking not just for the best local restaurant but they also seek answers to the deep questions such as ‘What is the purpose of my life?’, ‘Where can I find happiness?’ and even ‘Does God actually exist?’
So what if Christians were available to answer those questions? SzukajacBoga.pl is unusual in offering one-to-one correspondence, and the power of the internet means that seekers are now coming in droves. Dialogue begins with an open Bible and, as the Holy Spirit, gets to work, lives are transformed.
SzukajacBoga.pl is a platform where Christians and seekers are invited to read ‘A Father’s love letter’ – quotes of God’s words to man. After the opportunity to browse further introductory material, those interested in learning more are invited to enrol on a variety of different courses.
And the really good news is that it works. Last year alone one or more of the courses were completed by almost 6,000 people, many of whom accepted Christ and joined a local church. One typical new Christian said: ‘Over the weeks and then months I began discovering not only God, the Bible, but also the truth about myself. There was an invitation in the course to ask Jesus into one’s heart. I did that. A new life began!’
