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.
Elisabeth often gave the same talk in different locations. You'll find several talks entitled Prayer on the Elisabeth Elliot Foundation website. Each is unique, with its own stories and tone. All are a blessing and encouragement.
