Jacque Brown has taught the Bible in many different venues to all age groups over the past 45 years. After graduating from Columbia Bible College in 1970 with a BA in Biblical Education, she taught Bible as history for 12 years in several public schools in Georgia and North Carolina, using a curriculum that she wrote. During those 12 years, the churches that supported the Bible program in the schools called on her to teach women’s Bible studies and other small group settings, usually giving Jacque a theme or topic from which to speak.  After retiring from teaching in 1981, Jacque moved to South Florida and has been actively involved in teaching the Bible to various small groups, women’s ministries, Sunday School classes, youth camps, etc. Most of the materials that she uses are written by her or adapted to fit the needs of the people she is teaching. Some of the popular studies she wrote and still uses are

  • The Names of God – Getting to Know God Better Through the Study of His Names in the Old and New Testaments
  • The Psalms – Getting to know God Better thru a Devotional Study of the Psalms
  • What in the WORLD is God Doing and What Does It Have to Do With Me? – Learning where I fit into God’s Master Plan
  • The Masterpiece of God – Study on Ephesians 2:8-10

Jacque is able to adapt any of her studies to a one-night study, or a series of sessions for weekend retreats. She is also able to take any theme or topic and develop a single message or series of messages to meet the needs of any group.
