Five men entered the jungle in search of a savage tribe . . . and
never returned.
In January 1956, a tragic story flooded headlines around the
world. Five men, spurred by a passion to share the good news of
Jesus Christ, ventured deep into the jungles of Ecuador. Their
goal: to make contact with an isolated tribe whose previous
response to the outside world had been to attack all strangers.
At an agreed-upon time, their five young wives sat by their
radios, waiting for a message that never came. . . .
"Through Gates of Splendor," the story of Nate Saint, Roger
Youderian, Ed McCully, Pete Fleming, and Jim Elliot, was first
recorded in 1956 by Jim's widow, Elisabeth. Decades later, its
story of unconditional love and complete obedience to God still
inspires new readers. This edition contains subsequent developments
in the lives of the families and the Waodani tribe.
"Through Gates of Splendor," Elisabeth Elliot's first book, has
become the best-selling and most powerful missionary story of the
twentieth century. Elliot has gone on to become a popular speaker
and the author of several books and a host of magazine
articles.
Read about the continuing story of the Waodani and the
missionaries' families: This edition includes two preview chapters
from "End of the Spear," the new book by Steve Saint (Nate Saint's
son), about his return to the jungle and the people who took his
father's life. This story is now a major motion picture.
