Summary of Ellen Vaughn's Becoming Elisabeth Elliot

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 On April 11, 1948, Jim Elliot was a junior at Wheaton College, thirty miles west of Chicago. He and three friends, another Jim, Walt, and Hobey, laughed and kidded one another as they piled into Hobey’s 1946 Nash. They were headed to a local hospital to visit patients and tell them about Christ. #2 The work for which God saved Jim’s life was to be a missionary in Ecuador’s mysterious green rainforest. He had found the work for which he was suited, and he was loving it. #3 The five missionaries had dreamed of introducing the love of Jesus to the Auca tribe, but they never received a response. They had a sense that the Waodani were watching them. #4 The missionaries were excited to meet the Waodani tribe, as it was the first friendly contact with an untouched, violent tribe. They prayed it would be the beginning of a great new frontier for the gospel.
