Welcome

I’m Jeff Ellis, and my story is one of redemption, faith, and God’s unending love. For over 25 years, I’ve walked with Jesus through prisons, churches, and rescue missions, sharing His hope with those who feel forgotten. As the author of five books, including Beyond Reason: A Journey of Faith and bestsellers like Forgive and The Good Father, my passion is to help you grow in faith, trust God for miracles, and discover His purpose for your life.

My Story

I wasn’t always a minister or an author. For over 20 years, starting as a teenager, I was trapped in addiction to alcohol and tobacco. By 38, I was broke, jobless, homeless, and estranged from my three children, convinced there was no way out.

But in my darkest moment, I heard a simple truth: “God loves you and has a plan for your life.” I surrendered my life to Jesus, and in an instant He set me free—no cravings, no withdrawal, just His grace. Since then, God has restored my family, given me a home, and blessed me with my wife, Ginger. Today, we’re surrounded by 22 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren, a living testimony to His promise to restore what was lost (Joel 2:25).

Personal Encounter: The Weight of Glory

I was on a particularly difficult business trip and had just knelt to pray. Suddenly, I felt the presence of the Lord, the “weight of glory” pressing down on me. I was scarcely able to breathe. His presence was like a current of electrified warm honey running through me.

Living Proof

I am living proof that God is real. My life is a testimony to His goodness, patience, and power. He freed me from addiction to alcohol and tobacco that had me bound for more than twenty years. I call it my one-step program: from my seat to my knees. He freed me without cravings or any withdrawal symptoms. It was as if I had never started: fresh, clean, free.

All Things

Four times in the last five years, the Lord has given me this word: “All things concerning you are in My hands.” I needed to hear it more than once until I finally got it! And it is only recently that I have begun to understand its full import. This encouragement and blessing is not only for me, it’s for you, too. It is a freshly spoken Word of God (rhema) and is for all of us.

''Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.''

Hebrews 11:1
