Co-Founder, Executive Director, Clinical Supervisor
My name is Sally Jeffery; I was born in New York City in 1958. I am the middle child of Anna and Adrian Lincoln from Princeton New Jersey. I attended Princeton Day School, Syracuse University, and Liberty University.
I accepted Jesus Christ as my Savior on December 31, 1972, while on a ski trip with FOCUS [Fellowship of Christians in University and Schools]. FOCUS is a ministry that targets private school and boarding school students who may otherwise not have an opportunity to hear the gospel.
My salvation was radical in nature. I had come from a well-to-do stable family, enjoying all the comforts and pleasures of the world with lots of friends, vacations, sports, etc. This left me a hard sell for Christ. But then Christ revealed himself to me as the Son of God, like lifting a veil exposing all his truth and glory. I was deeply transformed. Everything in my world changed.
In 2004 my husband, Ed, and I started Proclaim Liberty Ministries [PLM], for people whose lives were unmanageable. Our conviction was that people with substance use disorder (SUD) were getting sober but not living an abundant life. This led us to Ellijay Georgia in 2005, and in 2008 we opened Isaiah House. It is our greatest joy to see the lost give their life to Christ. This is the Great Commission, this is what we are called to do; to bring hope to the hopeless, to bring the good news of salvation, and lead others to Christ.
