5.0 out of 5 starsAMAZING
By KO on December 23, 2015
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
Elisabeth Elliot and this book are absolutely excellent!!! I love how authentic and practical this book is. It completely change my mindset on dating and even on other aspects of life. Elliot does not make being relatable or funny or politically correct her priorities, but trait but puts forth scripture and her personal experience to develop this incredible guide to what it means to be in a God honoring relationship. I bought so many of these as gifts because they are so good!

5.0 out of 5 starsYou have daughters? She and you need to read, period.
By JohnRiverdale on June 8, 2016
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
I wish as a young man I would have known about Elisabeth Elliot. I know I would not have made the common mistakes. Her is so amazing and my daughter loved reading this book. Note that the book will not save you hence you as a parent need to read it and apply it together. Mistakes and bad judgements will happen but there is Grace.

5.0 out of 5 starsA MUST READ
By amanda jordan on August 7, 2016
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
I wish I'd read this book a long time ago. Has a lot of insights into what a God-honouring relationship looks like.
I love Elisabeth Elliot's honesty with her struggles and feelings through-out her relationship with Jim Elliot. She points every struggle and doubt back to God, and uses a ton of Bible verses and other poems to encourage a godly mindset. I definitely recommend this for all ages of women, whether they're interested in dating, or are already married. Very inspiring!

5.0 out of 5 starsAnother great one from Elisabeth - for older young people
By W. Boytim on June 24, 2016
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
This is a really good book. It is NOT intended for younger readers! I pre-read it before giving it to my 17 year old and some of Elisabeth and Jim's love letters are a bit graphic. I told my 17 year old not to leave it laying around so our voraciously reading 10 year old does not pick it up!

It's beautiful! It isn't written as a "how-to" but rather as a collection of Elliot's thoughts and journalling. I thought it was very insightful, helpful, and full of wisdom!

5.0 out of 5 starsLOVE this book
By Amazon Customer on May 27, 2016
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
LOVE this book. The book goes through Elisabeth and Jim's relationship and God's power of keeping them pure until their wedding night. A great book for a woman "in the waiting". In this book Elliot is very candid about her desires and how she had to surrender those longings to the Lord's timing if it be His will.

5.0 out of 5 starsElisabeth Elliot has a wonderful balance of spiritual obedience and awareness of human emotions
By Booklover on June 16, 2015
Format: Paperback
Elisabeth Elliot has a wonderful balance of spiritual obedience and awareness of human emotions. She is able to articulate the struggle between our human passions and the call to follow God's design for the proper expression of those passions. Her humility allows her to qualify her experience saying that it was her own personal story, not for everyone, but still extracting lessons she learned that are helpful to many people with many different experiences.
