The university students seated in her living room were enjoying English conversation when one young man raised his hand ever so slowly to signal that he had a question for the teacher. “May I see your Bible?” he asked. Before she could answer, he continued, “I have never seen a Bible before.” She hurried to another room to collect a Bible for him to peruse. He held it gingerly as he began to turn the pages. Others continued in conversation, but he was lost in the Word. At the end of the evening, he tried to hand the Bible back to the hostess, but she refused to accept it. “No, it is yours,” she said. “Ohhh,” he said, holding it to his heart, with tears coursing down his cheeks. The teacher knew that something much more important than English acquisition had taken place that evening.
