5.0 out of 5 starsA Model for Modern Missionaries
By Brian G Hedges on July 24 2000
Format: Paperback
Few books have impacted me as much as this "life and testament of Jim Elliot" written by his wife, Elisabeth. This is the story of an earthly (though not worldly) man with a heavenly mind. Jim Elliot was a man of passion and a man of prayer. This book chronicles his journey from childhood in Oregon to college days at Wheaton to the mission field of Ecuador where he eventually gave his life at age 28. Full of journal excerpts and personal letters, one gets to know this great man's heart. His struggles, his ambitions, his loves, his dreams - and his all-consuming passion for Christ and His kingdom - gripped my heart as a teenager. This man became my hero. If you want to know the man behind the motto "he is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose" this is the place to start. I highly recommend this book - especially to Christian teenagers who want to give 100% to Jesus Christ.

5.0 out of 5 starsChallenging, Inspiring and Motivating!
By David Dale (ddale@one.net) on Feb. 18 1999
Format: Paperback
This is a must read for all Christians who have any desire to know Christ and to offer their lives to him. If not, this book will definitely challenge you to do so. Shadow of the Almighty mainly consists of letters and journal entries Jim wrote while at college and while preparing and serving on the mission field. It represents a great example, not of a perfect man, but of a man who wanted to live his life fully for Christ, no matter what the cost. The main message is that to know Christ is to obey him, and that Christ is worth laying down anything and everything. Thus, Jim's famous words: "He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose." Jim is an inspiration and example to me as I prepare to serve as a missionary in some of the most unreached places on earth.

5.0 out of 5 starsThe Testimony of a Changed Life
By Jeffrey R. Taguchi on Dec 2 2002
Format: Paperback
The story of Jim Eliot and his commrades is a must read for ministers and missionaries alike. It's a life changing perspective that describes the heart of this fine man. His commitment and service to God is chronicled in this fine work by his wife Elisabeth. Those who are intending to pursue a career in missions and or ministry must read this book. Just like basic training prepares our soldiers for battle, this book is a documentary of basic training for missionaries who wish to serve in the Army of God.

5.0 out of 5 starsA great book about a man dedicated to doing the will of God
By A Customer on Jan. 21 1999
Format: Paperback
Shadow of the Almighty tells the remarkable testimony of a Godly man. This book makes you want to read the Bible from cover to cover. Jim was a man who consulted God's will in all he did. The story ends with his death in the jungles of Equador by the Auca indians. This book is truely one of the great Christian classics of the twentieth century. You won't want to put it down.

5.0 out of 5 starsA must-read for EVERY Christian man.
By A Customer on April 24 1998
Format: Paperback
Elisabeth Elliot has wonderfully written a book about how one's life is lived, DAILY, in full submission to God. The journals of the late Jim Elliot paint the picture of his intimate love relationship with his Lord and Saviour that will inspire all Christian men AND women. It shows how Scriptural truths are lived out in the daily grind of life. Again, this is a must-read.

5.0 out of 5 starsGod's direction makes for a life journey worth living.
By Chris Slabbekoorn on Aug. 8 2015
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
An awesome journey of devotion. Inspired me in this fallen world knowing our Lord is in control of this planet even though sin is seemly attempting to set the illusion of crushing hope. Jim Elliot makes salvation totally evident through God given purpose.
