His ultimate sacrifice lit a torch that could not be extinguish
In 1956, 5 young American missionaries were killed by the Auca Indians in the Ecuadorian jungles while trying to reach out to them with the Word of God. That seemingly senseless tragedy half a century ago had become an inspirational marvel as that same tribe became friends with the families of those they killed! This is the story of one of those brave torchlighters—Jim Elliot.
