Pushing Beyond Our Assumptions
Starting a friendship with Mei, a Mainlander, this past fall was a step of faith to intentionally break the stereotypes I had harbored in my heart. I wanted to befriend her on a personal level, learn about her life, passions, and dreams for the future and break past my very general, surface understandings of Mainland Chinese. I had to confront in myself a selfish obstacle to sharing Christ with someone who had very likely never heard of God’s salvation.
