Beyond the Gates of Splendor
Over the Thanksgiving holiday, I "Netflicked" a documentary called Beyond the Gates of Splendor. The story is about the 5 missionaries (including Jim Elliot) that were killed by the Wadoni tribe in the jungles of Ecuador in 1956. I highly recommend the movie to anyone interested in the story behind the killings and the eventual redemption of those that killed the missionaries. The movie is presented as a documentary and has a lot of home video footage and photos of the missionaries. This January, a feature length movie will be released (End of the Spear) that presents the same story in a more theatrical re-telling. Anyway, just thought I would share.
