Elisabeth Elliot colourfully and honestly describes the mysteries and difficulties of adapting to life as a new missionary in the Ecuadorian jungle.

In her first year as a missionary to a small group of native women in the Ecuadorian jungle, Elisabeth Elliot faced physical and spiritual trials. In These Strange Ashes, Elliot captures the mysteries and stark realities surrounding the colourful and tribal world in which she ministered.

More than just a recounting of her early days living among the Auca (now known as Huarani) women, this is a beautifully crafted and deeply personal reflection on the big issues of life and a powerful testimony to Elliot’s early commitment to God.

    The Good Book Stall

    Average rating of0.0

    I enjoyed this book, I am uplifted by personal experiences and hearing about the power and plans of God. Elliot’s unique writing style is captivating and inviting into her new world of the Ecuadorian jungle. Elliot’s passion to serve God and trying to discern His plans and timings strikes a cord in most people’s walk with God no matter where they are in the world. That aside I couldn’t help feeling a little disappointed with the story though. I wanted Elliot to go further and deeper and tell more. I felt the stories were curtailed and therefore overall the book was shorter than I had wished.
