Bishop Joel V. Brown
Bishop Joel V. Brown


Bishop Joel Vincent Brown is an anointed teacher, preacher, and prophet. His ministry parallels with the Prophet Joel in that he walks with the prophetic mantel on his life.

Bishop Brown is the son of Metropolitan Archbishop Olive C. Brown and the Late Bishop James F. Brown, Jr. He is a native of Richmond, Virginia, where he received his formal education in various catholic schools in the Richmond area. Bishop Brown has attended Virginia Union University and the Evans-Smith School of Theology.  

In 1992, Bishop Brown was ordained Elder in the International Christian Ministries (ICM). From 1993 to 1996, he served as Founder and Pastor of Word and Power International Christian Ministries in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Upon returning home, he served as Youth Pastor at New Jerusalem International Christian Ministries. In 2004, Bishop Brown was appointed Senior Pastor of New Jerusalem International Christian Ministries and First Vice President of International Christian Ministries. In March of 2007, he was consecrated to the office of Bishop under the hand of Metropolitan Archbishop Olive C. Brown and Co-Consecrator Bishop Perry W. Jenkins, Sr. In April of 2013, Bishop Brown was consecrated to the office of Prophet under the hand of Metropolitan Archbishop Brown and Co-Consecrator Apostle Vennissica Kelly.

In October 2021, Bishop Joel and Lady Krystal Blue-Brown were united in holy matrimony. As Senior Pastor and First Lady of New Jerusalem International Christian Ministries, their goal is to teach the whole man to prosper in the knowledge of Christ – “Strengthening the Foundation, Building for Our Future!” Bishop Brown is also the Founder and President of Vincent Ministries Inc., a non-profit organization which has the mission to re-establish Kingdom values in the marketplace, and assist young men and women in reaching the potential that God has for their lives. Bishop Brown, Vincent Ministries Inc., and New Jerusalem ICM have established an initiative to fight the war on domestic and sexual violence.  

Bishop Brown, in addition, is the founder of the JVB Movement, through which he has established several walk/run initiatives throughout the Commonwealth of Virginia. The focus of these programs is to encourage and motivate individuals to begin and maintain a more active and healthier lifestyle. Bishop Brown is very passionate about seeing people discover and reach their healthy lifestyle goals, as well as break free of chains of abuse that stem from inward or outside influences. Understanding that words alone will not satisfactorily address problems or difficulties, Bishop Brown maintains that there must be actions to coincide with an individual’s words. Simply put, words plus actions will equal results! He has spent most of his life as a Pastor informing others about God’s plan for humanity, currently revealing his own life experiences to help others improve their life. Bishop Brown “…does not believe anyone can do it for you, but you can tap into the inner champion. We all have an innate ability to overcome every obstacle we face.” 

Bishop Brown has served as keynote speaker for national and international faith-based and nonprofit organizations (to name a few): the American Heart Association, Entrusted Connections Ministries Women’s Conference, Balm in Gilead Ministries, and ministries in South Africa, East Africa (Uganda), and West Africa (Nigeria). Oversight of the expansion of the message of making a healthy lifestyle an obtainable lifestyle is Bishop Brown’s mission.
