People behaving\u2026glad to say, very nice to each other!
\nAfter the madness of last week Speakers Corner returned back to \u2018normal.\u2019 The sun shone, people chatted and debated, some preached and a steady flow of concert goers walked through the corner to get to the Hyde Park concert area ready to listen to the South Korean group Ateez.
\nMy highlight of the day was a conversation with a Moslem man called Ahmed, he looked very nervous and asked me, \u201cWhat I was doing in the park?\u201d A clumsy way to find out if I was there to listen to others or willing to chat. My reply, \u201cI am a Christian, here to talk, do you have any questions about the Christianity?\u201d And off he went, \u201cWhy so many different Bibles, Your Bible has been corrupted? Why do Protestant and Catholic Bibles differ? The Trinity doesn\u2019t make sense\u2026and a few other standard questions that come up most weeks at the Corner. I think he was surprised that I had informed answers to all his questions.
\nPlease pray that something he heard will stay with him.<\/p>\n
