Monte and Janice's ministry includes the fact that they both are authors. Janice is the author of the book, His Word for Troubled Times, a collection of sermons that unfolds the secret of God's love and that His word brings healing to one's soul, body, and mind. This book also gives a brief testimony of her life, which has proven to others that they, too, can be an overcomer of adversity. Monte is the author of the book, Operation Payback. This book deals with the return of Jesus Christ to the earth and God's vengeance upon the enemy of man's soul.
The above success of Monte and Janice Brown boils down to one factor: their moto is We would rather touch hearts than make the charts; our Lord is soon to come.
Monte and Janice were joined in holy matrimony in 2010 and reside in Greenback, Tennessee.
