Step Aside Recently at our annual missions conference, Mr. Chris Lucas encouraged us with a song he wrote. He was inspired to write it after seeing a play directed by his daughter in her church in North Carolina. The play presented the history of Jim Elliot and others. Chris said, "This is a song that was written specifically about Jim Elliot.. When I was just a small boy, maybe two or three years old, Jim Elliot, Nate Saint and the other missionaries were martyred bringing the gospel to the Auca Indians. And so many of you remember that.. What an impact it had on me, going down and seeing that. So I came back determined to put some of my feelings and thoughts into music." |
