Life has never been safe . . . but God is always there

We live in a world filled with uncertainty. Our lives can change in the blink of an eye with one phone call, one diagnosis, one unexpected event. Caught in our own trials and news cycles, it's tempting to think that the world used to be safer and life used to be simpler. But the truth is, it wasn't. We can learn much about patience, perseverance, and trusting God from those who walked the path of life before us.

Through the deaths of two husbands, a life of travel and danger, and the struggles of raising her daughter as a single parent, former missionary Elisabeth Elliot clung to the God who never left her side. God provided Elliot with a security that could not have come from relying on the world. And He can do the same for you.

In this handsomely repackaged edition of Elliot's classic book, you are invited to join her as she recounts how she relied on God during some of the most amazing and difficult events of her life.

Elisabeth Elliot (1926-2015) was one of the most perceptive and popular Christian writers of the last century. The author of more than twenty books, including Passion and Purity, The Journals of Jim Elliot, and These Strange Ashes, Elliot offered guidance and encouragement to millions of readers worldwide.
