Evangelical Christian literature (I see a lot of it at work) is full of stories in which strangers walk up to the Christian and say "I've heard you're Christian, so I was hoping you could help me - a group of us have been reading the Bible together, and none of us are Christians. Could you help us find someone to lead us in a Bible study?" It's often on a college campus.

I can't imagine this ever actually happening in real life. Who goes out of their way to find a bunch of other non-Christians to read the Bible, and then has so much trouble finding a Christian that they have to go around begging complete strangers for Bible study help? It just seems odd. Do people really believe this? Does this actually happen regularly?

I know a couple people at Geneva who have said that has happened to them. I don't know about it being regular though.
