This man of God speaks without reservation, proclaiming the gospel of grace, calling for repentance, faith, and hope in our Lord Jesus Christ. Rev. Smith is in his sixth year as Pastor of the Mount Moriah Missionary Baptist Church, Dallas, Texas. He received his formal education in the Dallas Public School system, earning his diploma from L.G. Pinkston High School in 1970. He furthered his education by earning the following degrees and certifications: Educational Background Undergraduate Jarvis Christian College, August 1970 – May 1972 Southern Methodist University, August 1972-May 1974 Bachelor of Business Administration Degree Biblical Studies Southern Bible Institute, August 1975 – May 1980 Diploma in Preliminary Bible Program; Bachelor of Arts in Biblical Studies Dallas Bible College August 1982 – May 1984 Graduate Studies Dallas Theological Seminary, August 1984 – May 1991 Master of Arts in Biblical Studies “I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ…Preach the word…” II Timothy 4:1-2.
