Pastor Cory brown

Pastor Cory Brown has served as the Lead Pastor of Harvest Christian Fellowship since September 21, 2025. With over 20 years of ministry experience, Pastor Cory brings a deep love for people, a strong passion for the local church, and a heart for reaching the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Prior to coming to Harvest, Pastor Cory faithfully served for more than 16 years as Associate Pastor at BibleWay Assembly in Foley, Alabama. During that season, he ministered throughout the southeastern United States and in over 20 nations around the world. Missions has always been central to his calling, and he continues to be actively involved in ministry initiatives in the Middle East, Cuba, and Africa.

Pastor Cory’s vision for Harvest Christian Fellowship is to see a thriving, unapologetically Spirit-filled Pentecostal church that is deeply rooted in God’s Word and passionately committed to missions—both local and global—evangelism, and intentional discipleship. He believes the church is called to reach the lost, strengthen families, and equip believers to live out their faith daily.

An Ordained Bishop in the Church of God, Pastor Cory holds a Bachelor’s degree in Organizational Leadership from Columbia Southern University and a Master’s degree in Organizational Leadership from Waldorf University. He has also served in higher education leadership for 17 years, bringing wisdom, structure, and vision to both ministry and leadership.

In addition to pastoring, Pastor Cory serves as the Alaska State Youth and Discipleship Director for the Church of God, investing in and equipping the next generation of leaders. He is happily married to his wife, Kirsten, and is the proud father of Harper and Hudson.
