#1 hero: Jim Elliot




Remember this guy? His famous quote is, "He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose."

Take time and think about the quote.

A passionate man for God & a missionary whom wife is Elisabeth Elliot.. He and his friends Ed McCully, Roger Youderian, Pete Fleming, and their pilot, Nate Saint were so passionate to reach out to Auca Indians but unfortunately they were killed by them. Even at the time of their death at Palm Beach, they did not fight back. Thinking that his wife will never forgive her husband's murderer.. you may want to think twice again. With God's grace that enable her to forgive, she and her daughter, Valerie later moved to work with Auca Indians who was once murderous Indians. Today, Auca Indians have been transformed to be used by God. Isn't it amazing? =D

  1. May God bless you and your work for Him.

    Jim and the family he came from were all dedicated to serving the Lord. Recently I had the great privilege of editing some of his spoken messages ("JIM ELLIOT: A Christian Martyr Speaks to You" available from Amazon, etc.).
