What might Elisabeth Elliot have in common with Anna of the Bible? More than you might think!
Megan Hill returns to Live Like It’s True to discuss her new children’s book about Elisabeth Elliot and how God uses hardship to shape a faithful life. Growing up, Elisabeth’s parents called life’s difficulties “GMT”—“Good Missionary Training.” Those hard things were opportunities to learn to trust God and prepare for whatever He had ahead.
Both Elisabeth and Anna experienced loss, disappointment, and long stretches of waiting, yet both trusted God when life didn't go as planned. Come be inspired to live like it's true that God is at work—even when you can’t see what He’s doing!
Bible Passage: Luke 2 (Jesus Presented at the Temple)
