"End of the Spear," 60 Years Later; How Steve Saint Continues His Father's Legacy

News Staff : Jan 11, 2016  CBN News

"Our objective should be to try to bring other people back to the same side with Christ... to share the Good News, the Gospel with them so that they have the choice to live peaceably with God."

[CBN News] 60 years ago this week, Nate Saint and his four friends set out to share the Gospel with the Waodani natives in Ecuador, and what started out as a call to the nations became the ultimate sacrifice. (Screengrab via I-TEC, Youtube)

Saint and his friends were killed by the natives they had tried to reach.

The popular 2005 film, "End of the Spear," chronicled these events, and how the family members of these men stayed to share Christ's love.

Nate's son, Steve, continues the work his father began 60 years ago. He's the founder of I-TEC, a missions organization that focuses on empowering indigenous churches.

When asked how he could love the man that killed his father, Steve said, "The answer as to why and how something like this could happen is really very simple, it's God's grace and the power of His Word.

"If you are Christ's follower that is our commission from Christ."

Steve explains that the objective is to bring people to Christ, even after they have strayed "because we have strayed." (Screengrab via I-TEC, Youtube)

The ministry has won over the Waodoni tribes and many other tribes like it and aims to bring technology to these churches in order to equip them to be a self-supporting establishment.

"Our objective should be to try to bring other people back to the same side with Christ... to share the Good News, the Gospel with them so that they have the choice to live peaceably with God," he said.
