The 700 Club travelled to the jungles of Ecudor to document the remarkable story behind the motion picture 'End of the Spear'. |
I think Steve Saint captured the essence of this debate best when he suggested it is not our place to alter what may be God’s plan to win a hardened gay activist and others like him to Christ. |

Through Gates of Splendor -- The Story
In 1956, five American missionaries to Ecuador were brutally speared to death by a savage Stone Age tribe of Indians known as the Aucas. Two years later, the wife and sister of two of the murdered missionaries walked into the jungle to live with the same people who had murdered the men they loved.
