Please say a little prayer for my 15-yo, who is getting practice on apologetics right now as I type this. My brother has a visiting friend who's Jehovah's witness, and we've been having a lively discussion this morning about the Bible and Jesus. I have to attend to the little ones and a couple of things my folks need from me, so I left them, and I'm hoping she'll hold up well. She seems to be enthusiastic about sharing the things she's been learning lately (she's got her CCC notes and timeline with her ). I admit I'm a bit petrified that he will confuse her. But also hopeful that we've done enough to prepare her for times like this.

Thanks.

I'd be petrified too. Praying for Aisa. May the Holy Spirit guide her!

Thanks, everyone. Well, Aisa seems to have passed with flying colors and didn't lose her cool one bit (at least from what I gathered). AFAICT the friend didn't lay it on too thick either (thank God!). I found out this evening he was actually born and raised Catholic and just converted a few years ago because they came to the US and his mom couldn't afford to send him to Bible school and the JW folks (their neighbors) offered to teach him for free. Not knowing any better (his words, not mine) his mom agreed. Thankfully they didn't seem to get into any sticky topics, so my dd was able to extricate herself from the conversation easily after I left. Thanks again!!!

Great job, Aisa!

Now, to pray for the JW friend!
