“Clear, compelling, and exciting. Ellen provides a much-needed reminder that local churches living in and by the power of God are the way He displays His glory and goodness to a broken world.”
Alistair Begg, Bible Teacher, Truth For Life; Previous Senior Pastor, Parkside Church, Cleveland; Author, Pray Big and The Christian Manifesto
“When Ellen Vaughn writes something, I read it—no question. What she writes is never boring. She makes history come alive—not just as facts or a compelling narrative but as a story she genuinely understands and helps you understand too, and in a way that points straight to the hand of God moving through it all. What Jesus Started is a rich, compelling, and beautifully written book that celebrates the local church as God’s primary instrument for changing the world. It will inform you, stir you, and challenge you to live differently for Christ.”
Greg Laurie, Senior Pastor of Harvest Christian Fellowship, CA
“Ellen has captured stories that expand and challenge us all. I was blessed to travel with Ellen when she collected many of the stories in this book, and I can attest that there are thousands more that could be told! The Spirit of the living God is working in powerful ways to continue to build what Jesus started.”
Janice Rosser Allen, CEO and President of ICM
