In
this deeply personal account of her first year as a missionary, Elisabeth Elliot
shares what it was like to work in the jungles of Ecuador with a small group of
women, bringing the Word of God to the Colorado Indians. With fascinating detail
she captures the stark realities of life among this primitive people, and reflects
upon the "strange ahses" that can result when an act of obedience is
passed through the first of God's perfect - yet mysterious - will.
