Stuart & Jill Briscoe: The British couple reflect on a lifetime of ministry in the USA
Playback speed
The Briscoes' Telling The Truth ministry began in 1971 while Stuart served as senior pastor of Elmbrook Church in Wisconsin, which grew into the largest evangelical church in the state. It started as a simple tape duplication ministry in a home basement, using a reel-to-reel tape recorder linked to a dozen smaller recorders to duplicate the Briscoes' teaching. In the late 90s it became the first minstry to air on Premier Christian Radio, and continues to do so to this day, as well as being available as a podcast. In this in depth interview with Premier Christianity's Sam Hailes, Stuart and Jill share their testimonies, answer questions about the differences between the UK and America, and recall both good times and bad from a lifetime of ministry.
