I grew up on stories glorifying the death of Jim Elliott at the hands of native people. Martyrdom and spreading the Christian gospel was heavily glamourized in the evangelical bubble of my child/teenage years with no regard given to the aftermath of colonialism and cultural erasure. I am so glad that more and more native peoples are sharing their accounts of the true impact missionaries can have on a people group.
