Jeffrey Thomas Jansen

Jeff was born on December 12th 1962 in Little Chute, Wisconsin to Tom and Anne Jansen. One of five siblings, he attended Little Chute High School and gave his life to Jesus Christ his Lord and Savior at the age of 17.

When we say “he gave his life” - that’s exactly what we mean. Jeff offered his life as a living sacrifice to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Nothing was more important to him. The Lord used him mightily and promoted him as an internationally known conference speaker and crusade evangelist, touching the lives of millions and leading thousands upon thousands into an eternal relationship with Jesus.

Jeff traveled to 84 nations carrying the message of the Gospel with dramatic demonstrations of signs, wonders, and miracles. For decades he taught believers, young and old, how to live and move in the supernatural presence of God, emphasizing intimacy with the Holy Spirit.

Jeff authored or co-authored 15 books in total that have been translated into many other languages. His books have sold hundreds of thousands of copies globally.

Jeff co-founded Global Fire Ministries International and Global Fire Church and served as the Senior Leader of both ministries.

Jeff is survived by his parents, Tom and Anne, his siblings, Jodi, Mary, Melissa, and Andy, and his children, Hannah, James, John, Philip, Mercy, Truth, and Given.
