Elisabeth

That was so weird the way they were trying to recreate the ancient conflict between Queen Elizabeth I and Mary Queen of Scots, as if there were any comparison to modern realities. Just because I read a lot of Elisabeth Elliott books, a Presbyterian, that does not make me a Presbyterian. And just because Mary Queen of Scots was the mother of the heir to the throne, that does not make either one of those women deserving honors given only to the Virgin Mary. So these people are just weird. Yes, Elisabeth Elliott's husband Jim was one of the five martyred in Ecuador by the Auca Indians documented by her book "Through Gates of Splendor." Nevertheless, obviously there have been many missionaries to the Indians of South America and the Elliott's were not the first, only the first to the Aucas, a particularly fierce tribe. Still, each tribe has its own language and customs and needs its own missionaries to communicate the gospel to them. A television satellite just won't fit the bill. We cannot give up personal evangelism imagining that mass communication will do the job for us. It has its place but the macros will not help until the micros are installed and programmed to understand what you are talking about.
