CPM: POP Hunting

POP Hunting An expat colleague on our island shared with me how she wanted to be trained in the search for POPs. I met with her and trained her in just 2 beginning tools for approaching others. As we spent the afternoon trusting the HS for finding POPs the Lord led us to a group of family members of a Haji Pilgrim. They had escorted their relative to his/her departure for Mecca. We sat down with this group and exchanged introductions and backgrounds. My friend had watched me as I engaged the first group of Muslims and offered the DBS stories to their group. At that first earlier encounter I took the lead as per my friend’s request. This next group we engaged were quite chatty. I engaged them with a few approaches and thus identified ourselves as followers of Nabi Isa. To which they exclaimed, “Oh, you are both Muslims?!” To which we responded no, “But Allah is in pursuit of the hearts of men who are in pursuit of Him, are you all those who long to follow the Sirratol Mustaquim?”  I then offered for my friend, with her permission, to tell a story from the Taurat, Zabur, Injil (books of Moses, Psalms, gospels). We prefaced this story with the request that they in turn share a story of significance to their hearts. My friend shared the story of the women who touched the hem of Jesus’ garment. Their Haji male leader responded with a story from the Koran regarding Soloman. After we exchanged stories I asked him if my husband and I could come to visit he and his household and share more stories from the Taurat, Zabur, Injil. He responded. I gathered his cell phone number and made plans to have my husband contact him for follow up.
