Baptized ’64, but to young realizing God had a plan for him. Fell away from God but rededicated his life back to Christ in ’91. Licensed and ordained by his Pastor Dr. D.D. Davis (SJBC) in ’01 and ’07. An ecclesiastically endorsed Chaplain through the BGCT was not enough. Achieved his Doctor of Ministry at Liberty University in 2017.

Founding Senior Pastor of his current church, Pastor Smith is inspired by the Gospel of Christ, the Living Word. Thus, his leadership style gives positive focus to many. Dedication flows into family life with his lovely wife, Elect Lady Min. Janice. She has balanced his scale of life with their blended family. Staying on his knees daily in prayer comforts Pastor Smith intimately.
