Wonderful Counselor

The Elisabeth Elliot Foundation
About this episode
This recording is a result of our work digitizing over 600 cassette tapes of Elisabeth's talks. In this case, we do not know exactly when or where this talk was given. We'll continue our research but want to share it with you even before we have all the information we hope to have.
Because this was recorded on a cassette tape, which has a limited amount of time on each side, in the middle of the talk the cassette was taken out of the machine, flipped over so the recording could continue on side 2. You'll hear that break during this talk. Sadly, those few moments are lost to us.
Elisabeth often gave the same talk in different locations. You'll find several talks entitled Wonderful Counselor on the Elisabeth Elliot Foundation website. Each is unique, with its own stories and tone. All are a blessing and encouragement

Praying the Gospel
Psalm 103 is about how to handle life in general. It, in a sense, gives you the key approach to handle all of life’s circumstances, all of life’s situations, no matter what they are. And at first, this key feels anticlimactic.  What does it say the whole problem of our hearts is? ... Show More
