Recently most of our family had the opportunity to hear Brandon explain and defend his faith to a person he had just met. God worked it out so we could be there, and it was really something to see/hear. Brandon's gifts are not with speaking or with interacting one on one. Most IT people aren't very socially outgoing and are stronger in math and science than in language.
Brandon was very well spoken, was very interpersonal, and did a very effective job to help the person understand the point made in the discussion. As the person attacked his faith, Brandon made a very strong case for Christ. The person's behavior became more agitated the more Brandon spoke, but Brandon stayed calm and polite.
All of those years of praying and sowing as Christian homeschooling parents have come to fruition. I shed tears of gratitude to the Lord for Brandon's faith, his defense of it, his ability to maintain his composure, and for the perfect timing that allowed us to witness it. Please join us in thanking the Lord for what He has done!
Please pray for the young man who spoke with Brandon to increase in the knowledge of the Lord and come to a strong faith that will one day also bear witness to others. Pray that God surrounds him with godly people and removes negative influences and ways of thinking.
