Smith Jr. received his doctorate of theology from Slidell Baptist Seminary in Louisiana and a master of divinity at Andover Newton Theological Seminary in Newton Centre, Massachusetts. He holds a bachelor of arts degree from Fairfield University in Connecticut and has had advanced training in psychotheraphy from the Alfred Adler Institute in New York City.
A retired substance abuse specialist from Beth Israel Medical Center in New York City, where he was responsible for development of patient treatment plans for recovery, patient orientation, and individual counseling and seminar speaker on topics of social relevance and bereavement counseling, Dr. Smith was also the group facilitator addressing such topics as self-esteem, healthy lifestyle, and reconnecting with faith. His ministerial tasks included pre- and postmarriage counseling, Bible study, preaching, and pastoral counseling, among others.
In four decades of ministry, Rev. Dr. Smith has pastored at prestigious churches in the metropolitan New York area and taken the gospel to New England, Florida, Pennsylvania, and Northern New York State. In 2002, he founded Church of the Savior in the Bronx, New York, with the expressed mission of proclaiming salvation in Jesus Christ to the broken, neglected, and unloved men and women searching for wholeness and forgiveness.
Dr. Smith is a firm believer that every human being, despite their circumstance, has special abilities that benefit a community, family, or society. From his humble beginnings in Brooklyn, New York, to his acceptance to the prestigious Fairfield University despite failing grades in high school, he is a testament that anyone can fly with broken wings if they believe in the Living God.
Dr. Smith is married to Theresa Marie, his gifted partner whose love and commitment to Christ made aspects of ministry a reality. He is also the proud father of three children, who love him despite his imperfections.
