| 0:00.0 | Hear the tale of the lobster boat today. |
| 0:07.5 | Hey welcome. |
| 0:08.7 | It's another look into the life and message of Elizabeth Alliant, who called us to live to a higher standard. |
| 0:15.3 | As our series continues in the coming weeks, we'll hear from family members, from friends and others, influenced by the |
| 0:22.4 | life and message of Elizabeth Alliant. Hey, thanks for joining us today. And on the schedule |
| 0:32.7 | for today, the conclusion of a short series called Journeys with God, as we hear about a trip to Taiwan and a trip on a lobster boat. |
| 0:43.4 | We'll be hearing from missionary Frank Collinger, and we'll be hearing from Miriam Rockness, an author, and a Christian leader. |
| 0:51.5 | As she talks about the teamwork of Elizabeth and her third husband, Lars Greene, that coming later. |
| 0:59.2 | Right now, it's Journeys with God Part 4 with a look at Taiwan. |
| 1:04.6 | We'll be thinking about how Elizabeth's journeys, various ones, came because of the attack on her husband so long ago, |

| 1:23.6 | about a confusing dateline, a story of a car breaking down, and about six providences. |

| 1:36.8 | everlasting arms. This is your friend Elizabeth Elliott, continuing my talks today on journeys |
| 1:42.6 | with God. We were talking yesterday about our time in |
| 1:47.9 | Mongolia, and at the end of the program I was musing on the marvel, the unimagined ways of God. |
| 1:56.1 | As a child, I had always visualized myself in a thatched hut somewhere, doing what missionaries do. Was I going to be a nurse, |
| 2:04.5 | perhaps a doctor, or a surgeon? Well, I didn't turn out to be any of those things. God sent me to |
| 2:10.2 | Ecuador to do linguistic work, and many of you know the story of my 11 years in jungle missionary work. But if it had not been for |
| 2:21.6 | the strange set of circumstances that God had allowed to happen, the death of five American |
| 2:28.1 | missionaries, I would certainly not have been in Mongolia or in the place that I'm going to be talking about today. |
