Leslie continues the Overcoming series with an exploration of Elizabeth Fry - a wife and mother of eleven - who lived in the early 1800's and was responsible for prison reform throughout Europe. Elizabeth was a wife and mother of eleven children who made herself available to God to stand on behalf of the weak and needy, despite already having a full life. God did profound things in and through her life as a result of her unconditional availability to Him. Her ministry is a profound reminder that when we attempt to “change the world” by our own wisdom, strength, or merit, we fall far short of what can be accomplished when we simply yield to the power of God to do His work in and through us.
