Welcome to another look into the life and message of Elizabeth Elliott, as she called

us to live to a higher standard each day.

As this podcast series continues in the coming weeks, we'll hear from family, friends,

and others who are influenced by Elizabeth's life and message.

We continue today our extended series on Operation Alka and other events during Elizabeth's

time in Ecuador.

Today we feature Glad Tidings Episode 93, a Glad Obedience, and 94 Missionaries Meeting

Later we'll hear from Samantha Lagoy, a caregiver for Elizabeth in her last years.

She'll talk about when she first heard about the death of Jim Elliott.
