Pastor Charles Brown has faithfully served the people and community of Mt. Marine Baptist Church since 2008. He leads with humility, vision, and an unwavering commitment to the Word of God and the community of believers. Under his leadership, the church has grown in spiritual purpose, intentional discipleship, and meaningful community impact.
At just 17 years old, Pastor Brown enlisted in the United States Marine Corps, where he rose through the ranks and was entrusted with the distinguished responsibility of shaping future leaders. From 1995 to 2000, he served as an Assistant Marine Officer Instructor at Duke University and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, mentoring and training officer candidates. After retiring from active duty in 2000, he continued a life of service through education—teaching in public schools in Charlottesville and Louisa County—and later supporting federal initiatives as a Data Analyst in Central Virginia.
A lifelong learner and dedicated teacher, Pastor Brown holds a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from North Carolina Wesleyan College, a Master of Arts in Theological Studies from Liberty University, and a Doctor of Philosophy in Theology from Trinity Theological Seminary.
Pastor Brown is a proud native of Columbia, Virginia, and is married to the former Roberta Ivory of Ivy, Virginia. Together, they are the parents of two children, Ashley Brown-Swann and Charles Brown III, and the joyful grandparents of three grandchildren.
Above all, Pastor Brown is a servant-leader whose life testifies to the faithfulness of God. He is passionate about helping others discover their God-given purpose—especially those who feel forgotten, rejected, or unqualified—because he knows firsthand what God can do with a fully surrendered life.
