About Global Horizons Inc. (GHI)
In the beginning, Dr. Klem taught Missiology at Bethel Seminary in St. Paul with his good friend Dr. Ralph Hammond. Drs. Hammond and Klem also taught many courses together on intercultural relationships and reconciliation. They were often called the Minnesota Twins by close friends. Together,
