Stuart Briscoe

Dr. Stuart Briscoe is a noted Evangelical Christian international speaker and author. Dr. Briscoe is the former senior pastor of Elmbrook Church, in Brookfield, Wisconsin. Elmbrook is the largest church in Wisconsin, averaging nearly 10,000 in attendance per week. Briscoe was called as Senior Pastor to Elmbrook in 1970, after a banking career in England and an international ministry under the auspices of the "Torchbearers".

During his pastorate, Elmbrook grew tremendously and planted a number of daughter churches in the local area while Briscoe continued his international teaching ministry. He has written more than 40 books and the media ministry "Telling the Truth", which he founded in 1971, continues to reach out daily around the world. In 2000, after serving for 30 years as Elmbrook's Senior Pastor, Stuart and his wife Jill, embarked on new ministries as Elmbrook's "Ministers-at-Large", concentrating on reaching out to pastors, missionaries and church leaders around the world while maintaining close ties with Elmbrook, their home church. Dr. Briscoe is credited with transforming Elmbrook from a church of a few hundred people to one of nearly 10,000. Stuart and Jill have 3 children and 13 grandchildren and reside in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin [ [http://www.elmbrook.org/articlelink.asp?iid=2002 Stuart Briscoe ] ]
