Suffering is Not for Nothing: The Message
from The Elisabeth Elliot Podcast · host The Elisabeth Elliot Foundation
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. This recording is the 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. Each tape is decades old and the quality of the recordings varies quite a bit from tape to tape. As we preserve Elisabeth's legacy, we will share as much of her work as possible, even when technical issues affect the quality of the audio. Elisabeth often gave the same talk in different locations. You'll find several talks entitled Suffering is not for Nothing on the Podcast and Elisabeth Elliot Foundation website. Each is unique, with its own stories and tone. All are a blessing and encouragement. ------ Music by John Hanson
