The crowds that 25-year-old Nick Vujicic draws as an evangelist would have been unimaginable only a few years ago, and impossible had he been born under other circumstances.
“In some third world countries … I would be seen as cursed, a shame to the family,” said Vujicic (pronounced VOY-chich). “The possibilities of me being killed at my birth would have been quite high.”

But Vujicic, who was born without arms or legs, does have one of the most powerful of all human attributes: a voice. Through the ministry he calls Life Without Limbs and a motivational program titled “Attitude is Altitude,” Vujicic said he has made 1,600 speaking appearances in 12 nations.
“No matter who you are, no matter what you’re going through, God knows it,” he said. “He is with you. He is going to pull you through.”
