Lassin Traore is one of the viewers of the program ‘La Bonne Nouvelle’.
Every Saturday and Sunday he is stuck to the television. “I don’t want to miss a broadcast. Because of those programs I have developed a different view of Christianity and Christians. What I notice the most is that Christians help others. I even see that in practice! The last program was about the goal of our life. We are here for each other. Yes, I know, the Koran says that too, but Christians can make it practical. Many people watch ‘La Bonne Nouvelle’. We are a people that talks a lot. It helps me and many others that I have heard about these subjects from a Christian perspective on television. If I have questions, I go to the pastor who is close by. I also send people who have problems to him. He always helps, even practically, because it comes from his heart. I am a Muslim, but I know Jesus too. You have to trust in what Jesus says. He lives in many people, also in me”.
