On Asking God Why

In 1958, Elisabeth Elliot returned to the Ecuadorian rainforest to live with the tribe who had killed her missionary/conservationist husband only two years earlier. Her choice to forgive, rather than retaliate, sparked a change in the Waodäni, who left behind a cycle of violence to embrace a life of love. Elliot’s remarkable story rippled across the globe, inspiring millions to serve God through missions.

For over 5 decades, Elisabeth Elliot's bestselling books have been a source of comfort and hope to generations of women and men of all ages and cultures.
