student testimonials

On Saturday Aimee, Olivia, and I, along with our Faith and Science professor went into Oxford University in order to participate in this Christian conference put on by the Ravi Zacharias International Ministry. We were able to hear the author of one of our textbooks speak-John Lennox as well as a few other well known authors. It was a mind challenging day but it definitely was worth it! I learned a lot about the importance of knowing how science and religion relate to each other in order to evangelize.While we were in Oxford we also saw the Church of Christ church, which is pretty popular because inside is where the hall scenes in Harry Potter was filmed.
 
 
Last Friday evening my flatmates (American equivalent=roommates/hall mates) and I all had dinner together. One of the girls, Olivia, is from PBA with me, and then the other three are from England. This dinner was such an awesome time of getting to know each other as well as building trust amongst the five of us. During the preparation of this dinner Olivia and I had the opportunity to share a little bit about our faith with one of our flatmates, Jess. She said that she has never met Christians before and that she can see that Olivia and I believe in and are passionate about something bigger. This was so encouraging to us, especially after we have been praying for God to use us on this trip. After dinner we went to a dance called the Bop that the University holds every Friday night, however I didn’t really like it all that much. Later into that night I was in Jess’ room and she began to ask a few more questions about my faith. During this time I was able to share a little bit of my testimony with her as well as a little snippet of Christ’s love for each one of us! I cannot quit praising God for this opportunity He gave Olivia and I!
