We will get to Krakow on time for our speaking engagement. The bad news? We will have to change trains part of the way there \u2026 and on the second train there were no seat reservations left. We will have to stand in the corridor for three hours. Yet, there will be fold-down seats for those who get on first. The plan was for us to get on as quickly as we could and get those seats.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400\">The first train with our reserved seats went fine. Carrying our luggage, we changed trains and rushed onto the second train hoping to grab a corridor fold-down seat before others did.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;text-align: center\"><strong>I Wanted to Yell<\/strong><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400\">It was cramped and crowded, and after all the excitement, I was tired and a bit weary. Needless to say, I just wanted to delve into a good book to pass the time for the next three hours. I shifted, trying to get comfortable, escaping into my book.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400\">At this point, I heard Kasia\u2019s voice talking to a stranger standing between us in the corridor, and she was talking about \u2026 you guessed it \u2026 Jesus and the gospel. I wanted to yell, \u201cYou\u2019ve got to be kidding me! Give it a rest!\u201d Okay. Fine for her. I tried to tune them out and focus on my book.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;text-align: center\"><strong>A Soft Spot for India<\/strong><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Suddenly, I heard her saying, \u201cYou believe in science?\u201d She then looked over at me and said, \u201cAmid, this is my friend, Mark. He is a scientist, and I have heard him say chemistry has shown him more of God.\u201d My thought was, \u201cYou\u2019ve got to be kidding me &#8211; give me a break, Kasia!\u201d<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400\">It turned out that Amid was raised as a Hindu in India. This drew me in; I have a soft spot for India having spent a summer there years ago. I additionally softened when seats opened up for Amid and me in the compartment next to us, so things got more comfortable.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Amid had become a skeptic about the existence of God, which opened the door for me to talk about how in my teens, the beauty and brilliance of nature eroded my deep-seated atheism. \u00a0<\/p><blockquote style=\"font-weight: 400\">I explained to Amid that those early experiences caused me to transition from an atheist to a theist, and ultimately played a large role in my becoming a Jesus follower.<\/blockquote><p style=\"font-weight: 400;text-align: center\"><strong>It Brought Me Much Joy<\/strong><\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400\">We were locked in a warm, engaging conversation for the rest of the trip, opening up about our lives, backgrounds, and life goals. I didn\u2019t share the gospel with Amid (Kasia had already done that), but the conversation was meaningful enough that I know it made an impact on him, perhaps to the point of him considering becoming a Jesus follower in the future. The conversation brought me much joy.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400\">What if I hadn\u2019t been willing to enter into this conversation? What if I had listened only to my own desire for comfort and had not engaged? Does God look at me and say, \u201cYou\u2019ve got to be kidding?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-7831b78 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"7831b78\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-7bcc885\" data-id=\"7bcc885\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0651265 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"0651265\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/campus.cru.org\/faculty\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/652\/2025\/02\/unnamed-1.jpg?w=1230\" title=\"unnamed (1)\" alt=\"unnamed (1)\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-9d703c1\" data-id=\"9d703c1\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-97c0b89 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"97c0b89\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4><strong>Mark Masthay<\/strong><\/h4><h4>Chemistry (Emeritus)<\/h4><h4>University of Dayton<\/h4>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Cru mission trip to Poland had gone well.
