Sevgi, the Muslim physical therapist, finds answers

Late last year, Sevgi, a Muslim physical therapist in Asia Minor, turned on her television and stumbled upon some Christian programming. She was drawn into the message and later told her husband and daughter about it. Soon the entire family was watching the show and obtained a copy of the New Testament! Although Sevgi and her family read it eagerly, Sevgi had many questions, such as "Has the Bible really been changed as we've always been taught?" and "What is really the truth?." Sevgi longed for someone to talk with about them.

As God so often works, He used an ordinary situation to reveal the truth to Sevgi. Jeff, a young missionary, was struggling with back pain and needed to see a therapist. A co-worker recommended Sevgi. After a few appointments, God opened the door for them to talk about spiritual things. Now each therapy session concludes with a Bible study and Sevgi has been getting answers to her questions!
