Elisabeth Elliot

In our can't-stop world, where we frantically move through our days with hardly a moment of true rest and reflection, it's hard to comprehend the thought of being still, of leaving our anxiety and worry and impatience in the capable hands of a loving God.

"I have deep feelings for this guy, but he says I'm like a sister to him. What should I do?" "Why should a man still be expected to initiate romance?" "Isn't it okay to spend time together if we're just friends?" "If I never marry, will God take that desire away?"

In a delightfully engaging series of essays, Elisabeth Elliot captures the joys and trials of a life fully given to Christ. A timeless spiritual perspective on the value of being a woman, wife, mother and Christian.
