WOW! Yesterday Steve and I went to see End of the Spear. Talk about a GREAT movie! I highly recommend you make time to go see it. It has some great lines and the story line is based on a true story. You've heard of Elisabeth Elliott? Well the five missionaries that the tribe kill are her husband, Jim, Nate Saint and three others. I didn't know the two stories were connected. I was so moved by the love and compassion these missionaries had for these people. Nate's son, Steve, narrates at different places in the movie and tells the story from his perspective as well as from the Waodoni people. (Aucas)
It's interesting that in a daily email I get from godsdailypromises@leftbehindprophecy.com that the title today is The joy of obedience. A book they reference at the bottom of this email is 'End of the Spear' by Steve Saint! I had to go order it, as well as the DVD 'Beyond the Gates of Splendor,' and two books, 'The Savage My Kinsman' and 'Through the Gates of Splendor.'
It was the kind of movie that you had to catch your breath at the end and just WOW!
