Shadow Of The Almighty

"Shadow of the Almighty" is the bestselling account of the martyrdom of Jim Elliot and four other missionaries at the hands of the Huaorani Indians in Ecuador. "Elizabeth Elliot's account is more than inspirational reading, it belongs to the very heartbeat of evangelic witness"--"Christianity Today."

When life gets too busy, too impersonal, and too much to handle, it's time to turn to God for some peace and quiet. Keep a Quiet Heart is a unique collection of some of Elisabeth's best work from her newsletter. More than 100 short passages offer a bit of relief from everyday life as they point the reader toward the everlasting love and peace of God.

Jim Elliot was a missionary--and then a martyr at the hands of the Auca Indians to whom he was witnessing. At the age of 28, he left behind a young wife, a baby daughter, and an incredible legacy of faith. Jim's volumes of personal journals, written over many years, reveal the inner struggles and victories that he experienced before his untimely death. In The Journals of Jim Elliot, you'll come to know this intelligent and articulate man who yearns to know God's plan for his life, details his fascinating missions work, and reveals his love for Elisabeth--first as a single man, then as a happily married one. Edited by his widow, Jim's personal yet universal musings about faith, love, and work will show you how to apply the Bible to the situations you face every day. They will inspire you to lead a life of obedience, regardless of the cost, and delight you with an amazing story of courage and determination.

In her first year as a missionary to a small group of native women in the Ecuadorian jungle, Elisabeth Elliot faced physical and spiritual trials. In These Strange Ashes, Elliot captures the mysteries and stark realities surrounding the colorful and primitive world in which she ministered. More than just a recounting of her early days, this is a beautifully crafted and deeply personal reflection on the important questions of life and a remarkable testimony to an authentic Christian commitment.

A Chance to Die is a vibrant portrayal of Amy Carmichael, an Irish missionary and writer who spent fifty-three years in south India without furlough. There she became known as "Amma," or "mother," as she founded the Dohnavur Fellowship, a refuge for underprivileged children. Amy's life of obedience and courage stands as a model for all who claim the name of Christ. She was a woman with desires and dreams, faults and fears, who gave her life unconditionally to serve her Master. Bringing Amma to life through inspiring photos and compelling biographical narrative, Elisabeth Elliot urges readers to examine the depths of their own commitment to Christ.

As she follows her investigation through France and back to Manhattan, she begins to suspect the terrible truth.

A sobering tale of power, corruption, and madness at the highest levels from a master craftsman of the written word.

"He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty," (Psalm 91:1). Those individuals who have chosen to accept Jesus Christ as their personal savior need the opportunity to learn the path to salvation. It is their privilege to know the many blessed ways to seek him. In my scriptural based writing, A Secret Place in God, individuals will be guided on their journey. In the book, examples are taken from the Bible, and lessons can be learned based upon experiences posed by men and women in God's word. My personal testimony is also shared in this piece. Individuals of all ages will learn that they are not alone; and there comes a time that they must make the decision to choose Christ over their own thoughts and feelings; and know that he has a better path of life for them. In addition, in A Secret Place in God, after having walked with God in the beauty of holiness for over forty years, I have shared many attributes of my knowledge of God as a healer, a comforter, a guide in every situation of which we are confronted, and most of all, as a savior. Also included are self-created lessons that can be shared with other teachers of God's word. My main purpose for writing this book is to make individuals aware that they can have their own personal walk with God; and that they can count on him to acknowledge and answer their most personal requests in life.
