CHRISTIAN HEROES: THEN & NOWElisabeth Elliot: Joyful SurrenderBy Janet & Geoff Benge It was a surreal moment for Betty. Here she was, sitting with some of the men who had undoubted ly helped in the murder of her husband, watching them as they listened intently to songs about God's love that one of the men they killed had written. Since she was young, Elisabeth Elliot had been intrigued by missionaries who gave up so much to tell others about God’s love. As the death of her husband and four other missionaries made news around the world, she determined to carry on. Remaining in Ecuador, Elisabeth worked among the Waorani (Auca) and Quichua Indians, translating their languages and sharing the gospel. Elisabeth kept a detailed journal of her life and the missionary service that defined it. She returned to the United States after many years in South America, becoming one of the most influential Christian women of our time. A prolific author, speaker, and radio host, she passes on a message of joyful surrender to the world (1926-2015). This best-selling, missionary biography series - Christian Heroes: Then & Now - chronicles the exciting, challenging, and deeply touching true stories of ordinary men and women whose trust in God accomplished extraordinary exploits for His kingdom and glory.
