On January 8, 1956 there were five missionaries Jim Elliot, Nate Saint, Ed McCully, Pete Fleming, and Roger Youderian who were killed by a tribe known as the Huaoranis.
These five brave men are credited with sparking an interest in Christian missions among the youth of their time and are still considered an encouragement to Christian missionaries working throughout the world. After her husband's death, Elisabeth Elliot and other missionaries began working among the Auca (Huaorani) Indians, where they had a profound impact and helped bring many people to Christ.
The following is a quote that was found in the journal of Jim Elliott - "He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose."
The son of Nate Saint whose name is Steve Saint wrote a book that was recently turned into a movie called "The End of the Spear."
Here is the link for the personal testimony of Steve Saint for your listening and learning about the sovereignty of God. By the way on this message Steve also speaks of the god father of his first child which happens to be the very man who killed his dad.
