On June 25th George Abdo, a software engineer, PhD. student, and theologian led an evangelistic event in Tel Aviv university as part of our ongoing series called ThinkCafe. George is from Nazareth and has led multiple evangelistic events in the past for FCSI students.
The event addressed themes such as the presence of suffering in the world, the realities of human evil, and the existence of God. George raised the question: how can God exist when evil also exists in this world? Is this a contradictory belief? Addressing the topic philosophically and logically, George kept the attention of the students, many of whom were new faces and kept the discussion lively with many questions. One student even attended the student’s weekly Bible study afterwards!
Because there was a large number of attendees and limited time, George stayed approximately two hours past the official end time and continued to answer questions from students. The feedback on this event was encouraging and, in the words of a recent graduate, “We hope others will also join future Bible study meetings!’
