Fun With An Atheist
Update: To see the video of the interview I did with Alex, click here
Yesterday I wrote about my friend Alex, an Atheist, who is going to come to the high school Bible study I teach on Wednesday night. The most popular response I’ve seen to inviting Alex as an Atheist to help me with this Bible study is a cringe. It’s not because nobody wants an Atheist there. Rather, it’s because they’re afraid I’m being insensitive to Alex by bringing him in for that reason. Alex, however, is happy to do it.
I love his sense of humor as illustrated in our e-mail exchange below. We’ve struck up a great relationship. It’s not that I take his spiritual condition lightly. I just know he’s on his way to becoming a Christian. His days as an Atheist are numbered. I’ve told him this often. Because of his impending salvation, and his insistence that it’s not going to happen, we’ve been able to have a little humor over this in the context of an growing friendship.
