Elizabeth was born to sing. However early on in her life it did not appear that would happen. From birth to age fourteen, Elizabeth would have eighteen bouts with an extremely serious lung illness, spending much of her childhood in hospitals. These illnesses took so much of her breath away that she could not even blow up a balloon...her doctors did not expect her to live.
Through fervent prayers of her family and people in ministry, she experienced a miracle.
In her teenage years, she recorded her first album of Gospel music. Since then she has released six albums of Christian music [Elizabeth Dietsche, All The Way, Singer of My Soul, Unity, Songs for Children & You Can Move Mountains.] Classically trained, she has sung numerous operatic roles including "Twelfth Night" and "Hansel and Gretel." Mrs. Montgomery has concertized throughout the U.S. and Europe, with over 2000 church and secular performances to her credit, including the Baptist Pastor's Leadership Conference in Glorieta, NM, Tennessee Acteens State-wide Convention, and the Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove, California.
Originally from Vinita, Oklahoma, Elizabeth graduated from Oklahoma City University in 1990 with a Music/Business Administration degree. In 1992 she earned her Masters degree in music from the University of Denver.
Elizabeth now lives with her husband Mark in Nashville, Tennessee. Along with pursuing her writing and recording career, she teaches voice at the prestigious Belmont University Music School. Her latest album "You Can Move Mountains" contains mainly original compositions written or co-written by Elizabeth. Featuring some of Nashville's premier players, "Mountains" moves from the R&B style "Glory" complete with Memphis horns to the Norah Jonesish "No Greater Love" to the majestic favorite "No More Night". The project has received rave reviews from critics and her fans.
The purpose of Elizabeth Montgomery Ministries is to edify, encourage, and bring a sense of unity to the body of Christ through music and testimony. As Elizabeth states; "Music is a universal language we all share. I intend to reach as many individuals as I can with the good news of Jesus Christ through song."
