Jim and Janet Brannon are native Californians who first met while attending Bible College.  After graduation from college in 1975 they were married and Jim accepted a position at the college as instructor and dean of students.  Janet is an accomplished musician and singer and has been involved as a church organist since she was 14.  Jim & Janet have traveled with various singing and ministry groups from the college and traveled across the United States until 1980.
The summer of 1980 brought about many changes for them as a young couple.  They became proud parents of their first son Jerry, 6 months later they were called on to assume the position of Senior Associate Pastor of a large established congregation and moved to Indianapolis, Indiana.  While living in Indianapolis, their second son Justin was born in 1982.   After eight years of loyal ministry, providing pastoral oversight for the church building project, and the completion a 2,500 seat auditorium, the Brannon family relocated to begin a new church in Livermore, California. 
As founding pastors of the Christian World Worship Center the Brannon’s have witnessed the growth of a church from infancy to an established congregation.  They have been the inspiration and leaders in purchasing 2 facilities, starting a preschool, and have become the pastors of a growing congregation with many ministries that have been established.  They have affected the lives of countless people in the San Francisco bay area though a TV ministry for five years and continue to sing and preach the good news faithfully to those who attend their church.
After nearly 33 years of ministry and marriage, two grown sons and two incredible daughters–in-law, God has proven to be faithful not only in the lives of their family, but in the lives of those that they minister to weekly.
