As part of her Cross-Cultural Communications course, Tan Ewe Lay, a Global University undergraduate student in Malaysia, ministered to a Hindu man from India. The man had been injured in a motorcycle accident, but instead of getting better, as the doctors predicted, he was getting worse. Tan took the time to develop a relationship with the man. As they talked, she shared how God could miraculously heal him of all of his wounds. Tan gave this injured Hindu man a Bible and began to show him in the Scripture all of the healings that God had performed.

Did you know that water intake fuels the body, builds muscle, and can get rid of excess weight? The more we exercise the more water we need. Each year, worldwide, more than 89 billion liters of bottled water are consumed. We cannot live without a constant supply of water.

One of our Global University students, Joan of South Africa, found the correlation between water in the physical realm and water in the spiritual realm a surprising evangelism opportunity after she finished the Global course, Studies in Physical Science.
