Sanctus Books was founded by author and scholar, Dr. Joel Stephen Elies.
Joel Stephen Elies is the Assistant Director of Doctoral Programs at Talbot School of Theology where he teaches courses in spiritual formation, Christian ministry and leadership. Born and raised in Hawaii, he pastored for thirteen years at Hope Chapel Honolulu. He is now a teaching elder at Antioch Fullerton and author of Christ-Centered Spirituality and Christ-Centered Reality. He earned his M.Div. in Spiritual Formation and Soul Care at Talbot’s Institute for Spiritual Formation under the leadership of John Coe. He later earned his D.Min. in Engaging Mind and Culture under the mentorship of J.P. Moreland and Garry DeWeese. He lives in Fullerton, CA with his wife, Amy, and their children.
Joel is a spiritual theologian and a church history nerd. He is fanatically committed to the Bible and fascinated by the many ancient writings of the historic Christian church (such as the desert fathers, the Celtic monastic communities, the medieval monks, the Dominicans, the Franciscans, the Devotio Moderna, the Reformers, the Anglican Divines, the Jesuits, the Puritans, the Methodists, the Revivalists, the Pentecostal Revival, and the Jesus People Movement).
