Last month, we spent a Saturday with the college group from our church here in Dakar. It was a full day of French (with a mixture of a few other local languages), sharing a big bowl of rice and fish, and talking about God. It was a nice time for us all to get to know a little bit more about each other. Of course, African tea was made, and that usually gives us all plenty of time to hang out, since it usually takes a few hours to make and drink it. This gathering was especially encouraging for us because the leader asked some very good questions. He asked the group, “Why God? Why did you choose to serve and follow God and not some other religion?” He also asked, “Who is God to you, and what are some attributes that you love about him?” It was great to hear their responses, and the various testimonies that all came back to one main point: our God is GREAT!
