Welcome to a new kind of Elisabeth Elliot Podcast episode.

In addition to our current releases, this is the first of our series of curated shows featuring the Gateway to Joy radio program, which ran for 13 years from 1988 to 2001.

We go back to basics and the beginning today.

One of Elisabeth's best-known themes was probably "Do the Next Thing." We also get the inside story on the very first Gateway to Joy recording session.

Gateway to Joy programs featured:

- Do the Next Thing

- The Mind of Christ

Guests:

- Valerie Elliot Shepard

- Jan Wismer

Theme Music: John Hanson
