Education As Mission - Episode 12

Influent Podcast

Joan Dellbruegge grew up in Malaysia, a primarily Muslim nation, where it is illegal to talk about the gospel with any Muslim. Though she was raised in a Buddhist family, Joan attended a Christian school because it was one of the best schools in Malaysia. The political leaders of the country would often send their children to attend this school and other Christian schools because of the high academic standards. In these schools, the Christian teachers would teach about the Bible. For Joan's class, out of 47 students, 45 attended classes on Bible Knowledge. The seeds of the gospel were planted, and years later Joan became a Christian while in Germany. When looking over her classmates now, around 30 out of those 47 are now Christians.
