God's Faithfulness - A Story of Hope

By Jim Munroe of Maze.

In January of 2008, I was scheduled to perform at Grapevine High School in my hometown of Grapevine, TX. The event was expected to be well-attended, and I was nervous. I was going on stage by myself for the first time without my partner in ministry, Tennyson. In the midst of all of the anxiety prior to the show, I met a sophomore student named Zak.

Zak was a young magician who was excited to see the upcoming MAZE show. Zak, as I found out in those few moments of conversation, was a Muslim.

After the show, Zak was still there. I couldn't believe he stuck around to hear the gospel. After a few more minutes of conversation, Zak and I exchanged numbers. We hung out frequently. While I was getting to know Zak, I felt like the Lord specifically wanted me to not preach to Zak, but to just love him. The Lord shared with me that he would do the rest.

To make a long story short... after 3 years of just "doing life" with Zak and letting the Holy Spirit work on his heart... Zak became a Christian last week. Zak is now on fire for the Lord, and wants to be part of MAZE Ministries so that he too can share the gospel through the art of illusion.
