Publisher Description: "More than inspirational reading: it belongs to the very heartbeat of evangelic witness." --Christianity Today Shadow of the Almighty is one of the great missionary stories of modern times. It is the life and testament of Jim Elliot, as told by Elliot's widow, author and evangelist Elisabeth Elliot Gren. Shadow of the Almighty is the true account of Elliot's martyrdom, along with four fellow missionaries, at the hands of Ecuador's Huaorani Indians. About this important and enlightening book, Eugenia Price writes, "It proves that Jesus Christ will bring bright creativity out of any shadow which might fall across any life and any love." A story that has inspired Christian readers for more than half a century, it poignantly recounts a tragic event that was presented from Huaorani perspective in the 2006 feature motion picture, End of the Spear. |
