There is nothing worth living for unless it is worth dying for.

My grandmother lived a life devoted to Jesus, and today her talks have been made available

in their original form.

So you too can be built up through the insights and mysteries God revealed to her throughout

her ministry.

Now without further ado, here is Elizabeth Elliott.

You are loved with an everlasting love.

That's what the Bible says, and underneath are the everlasting arms.

This is your friend Elizabeth Elliott continuing my talks on courtship.

I told the story of John and Betty Stam, who were great models to me as a child, as a young

woman.

I had met Betty Scott Stam when she was just Betty Scott, when I was only four years

old, four or five years old, I think she came to our house on her way to China as a missionary.

I remember hearing when I was eight years old how Betty and John had been captured by

Chinese communists and had been beheaded.

That made a very deep impression on my eight-year-old mind of what discipleship is about.

And then years later, I came across the biography of John and Betty Stam, called The Triumph

of John and Betty Stam, written by Geraldine Taylor, and I read you some of that story.

Now I want to give you another more recent example of a couple who did it right.

I had this letter and I thought what could be more appropriate since it's very difficult

for people to believe that a woman my age can possibly sympathize with people of younger

generations.
