Originally published in 1960 and a Brigada favorite, The Dayuma Story: Life Under Auca Spears is a powerful and enduring account of one of the first Waorani (formerly Auca) women to make peaceful contact with the outside world. Dayuma fled the violence of her tribe deep in the Ecuadorian jungle and eventually encountered Christian missionaries who introduced her to a new way of life. Her transformation and faith journey became a pivotal bridge between her people and the missionaries, especially in the aftermath of the tragic deaths of five missionaries, including Jim Elliot. This story is a moving testament to courage, reconciliation, and the transformative power of the gospel across cultures. Find it here: https://a.co/d/inBwry6.
