What is the main conflict in Shadow of the Almighty by Elisabeth Elliot?

Jim Elliot's biography is based on not only memories, but also extensive journal entries and letters to friends and family. It is the story of one young man's journey from birth, to following Jesus Christ at a young age that leads him on a journey of faith that eventually carries him to the mission field where he sacrifices his life for his faith. Intimate details take readers by the hand to witness what others see in the young missionary and what Jim Elliot himself thinks and feels as he chooses God's will over his own in everyday circumstances. Shadow of the Almighty is a love story between one man and his Savior and shows how that love and commitment overshadows all other relationships and every thought.
