What do you do when God calls you back to the place that took everything from you? In this episode, we sit down with Rachel Brondyke to unpack the remarkable life of Elizabeth Elliot — part two of our Jim and Elizabeth Elliot series. From boarding school in Florida to the jungles of Ecuador, Elizabeth's story is one of uncommon preparation, patient suffering, and radical forgiveness. She lived among her husband's killers, raised her daughter in the Amazon, and spent decades inspiring a generation of believers through her writing and teaching. Her life answers one of the hardest questions a Christian can face: What does obedience look like when it costs you everything?

Passage: Matthew 6
Preacher: Pastor Zack Jernigan
In this episode, we explore the life of Jim Elliot, a brilliant young missionary who walked away from a promising future to reach the unreached Waodani people in Ecuador. His story shows us what radical obedience looks like when you're willing to lay down everything—your education, your comfort, even your life—because you believe some things are worth more than safety, and that he is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose.

Passage: Colossians 2:15
Preacher: Pastor Zack Jernigan
In this episode, we explore the life of David Brainerd, a missionary who died at twenty-nine after spending years alone in the wilderness preaching to Native Americans—often without a translator, frequently without fruit, and always coughing up blood from tuberculosis. His story shows us what it means to keep going when there are no visible results, to find strength in prayer when you're completely alone, and to give everything you have to Jesus even when it costs you everything.
