  • Jim Elliott Kyla Usher 12 Grade Jim Elliot Was a Zealous Christian
    Jim Elliott Kyla Usher 12th grade Jim Elliot was a zealous Christian missionary who evangelized to the people of Ecuador. Jim grew up in Portland, Oregon, and trusted in Christ as his Savior when he was just a little boy. After graduating high school, Jim Elliot went to Wheaton College, and his burden for the inhabitants of Central America grew stronger. However, after graduating college, Jim wasn’t clear of God’s will for his life, so in 1950 he moved to Oklahoma to study unwritten languages at the Summer Institute of Linguistics, and it was there that he felt God was leading him to minister to the people of Ecuador. Jim Elliot’s Accomplishments Jim Elliot’s life and testimony affected the Christian church in many positive ways. He evangelized the Auca Indians and led many of them to Christ. Despite the danger Jim faced, he continued in his journey to witness to the Ecuadorian people because he knew that was God’s will for his life. Because of this, Jim Elliot inspired several people to go into the mission field, and his story is still affecting the lives of missionaries today. While on his journey, Jim Elliot wrote journals and letters, many of which were published. These journals tell of his life while in Ecuador and the different experiences he encountered. These writings still help people to have a firm foundation in Christ and to grow in Him. Jim’s faith encourages Christians to face their fears with courage and the belief that God knows what’s best for us.

    John Politan Moses: Looking to His Reward (The Doctrine of Eternal Rewards) (part 3) Hebrews 11:23 – 29, Selected Scriptures September 4, 2016 Reading from the Valley of Vision, “Covenant” (pp. 258 – 259) I hope you have your Bibles open to Hebrews, chapter 11, because that was our jumping- off passage, if you will. What did it say? Just to bring it back to your eye one more time, Heb. 11:24 By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter, 25choosing rather to endure ill-treatment with the people of God than to enjoy the passing pleasures of sin, 26considering the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt; for [because] he was looking to the reward. There it is. About thirty-five years ago, the First Baptist Church of Modesto, California, was what church people maybe refer to as a “maintenance” church. At one time it had over a thousand members, but its membership had dwindled to around two hundred (or a little less). Many aspects of the church property were in a state of disrepair. A man by the name of Al Broom was asked by the senior pastor to please come and be the executive pastor of the church and see if they couldn’t help turn some things around. One of Al’s first jobs to get done was to do something about the carpeting in the church. He found a great deal on some blue-green carpeting, so he ordered it and had it installed in the church.

  • Archival Research on Missionaries and the Waorani Dr
    Picture with a Thousand Pieces: Archival Research on Missionaries and the Waorani Dr. Kathryn Long October 5, 2017 Introduction Thanks to the BGC Archives for the invitation, also for prayers and encouragement from many in the audience during a challenging year. Tonight, I want to talk about using archives, and specifically the Graham Center Archives, to do research for a book I’ve written that is in the final stages of editing (I hope!). Its title is God in the Rainforest: Missionaries Among the Waorani in Amazonian Ecuador. It traces the story of missionary interaction with the Waorani, an isolated group of indigenous people in the Ecuadorian Amazon, between 1956 and about 1994. Contact between missionaries and the Waorani, then called “aucas,” began with an event familiar to many people in this room: the deaths of five young missionaries in 1956, speared as they tried to make peaceful contact with the Waorani. Two years later, two missionary women—Elisabeth Elliot, the widow of one of the slain men and Rachel Saint, the sister of an another, with the help of a Waorani woman named Dayuma—successfully contacted the Waorani and began efforts to introduce them to Christianity and end the violence that was destroying their culture. [Slide 1] The sacrificial deaths of the five men and subsequent efforts to Christianize the Waorani became the defining missionary narrative for American evangelicals during the second half of the twentieth century. It certainly was the most widely publicized. Here are a few of the books, and, more recently, the films, that told the story.
