Secure in the Everlasting Arms (Vine Books, 2002) is a book in which Elisabeth Elliot tells how she relied on God through uncertain years: the deaths of two husbands, a life of travel and danger, and raising her daughter alone. Its theme is a security that does not come from the world, and the title echoes the words with which she opened each of her radio broadcasts. Revell reissued it with a study guide.
