Show Notes

<p>Most Christians know of Colleen’s sister-in-law, Elisabeth Elliot, and her husband, Jim Elliot. However, very few know the story of Herbert Elliot, Jim’s brother, and his wife Colleen. Colleen is an amazing woman worth knowing!</p><p>In this episode, we learned about Colleen’s early years; how she met her husband; her education; and later how God led her and her husband into full-time ministry in the jungles of Peru. Colleen and her husband Herbert served God together for over sixty years, and chronicled their time together through voluminous correspondence.</p><p>Colleen’s story is a love story: first and foremost, her love for Jesus and her great commitment to Him; secondly, her love for Herbert (and his for hers); and thirdly, Colleen’s warmth and love for all the people she knew and ministered to.</p><ul> <li><em>Love So Amazing: The Missionary Biography of Bert and Colleen Elliott</em> by Gilbert Gleason</li> </ul>
