Our Minister

---

     On April 25, 1969 Timmy Smith was born to the late Sammie J. Smith in Shaw, MS.  At the early age of four, his mother made a decision to move him and his siblings (two brothers and three sisters) to North Cleveland, MS where he grew up.

     During his high school years, Tim was an outstanding student and was involved in track and field and basketball.  He was granted a scholarship to Cedarville College, but made a mature decision to decline so he could help support his mother. Tim attended Cohoma Community College and later he acquired a Masters in Evangelism from Mound Bayou School of Preaching. Later he furthered his studies at Sunset Bible College in Lubbock, Texas. 

      Tim met and married his beautiful wife, the former Michelle Curtis of Charleston, MS. To this union they have been blessed with a son, Sherif Smith whom is the pride and joy of their lives.

     In October 1992, Tim was introduced to the gospel by Jack King at Lampton Street Church of Christ and that very night he obeyed and was baptized by Dr. Harvey M. Jackson.  As he matured he became more interested in the church.  He took on several roles as a young brother.  As a result of his faithfulness and dedication in the kingdom, Tim accepted the position of Assistant Minister of Liberty Heights Church of Christ in Batesville, MS.

     In July of 2008, Minister Smith followed God's path to Huntsville, AL to work with the Inner City Church of Christ where he became a part time minister. On November 15, 2008 he became the Minister of Huntsville Inner City of Christ where he holds and cherishes this position today. 

     He is an active board member of the Mississippi State Lectureship of the Churches of Christ where he serves as Secretary/Communications. His service to the Lord has allowed him to have a seat as well as teach a workshop on the Mississippi State Youth Conference. He currently serves as Chairman of the board for the Senior Ministers Appreciation for the state of Alabama. He is an instructor at His Way, a drug and rehabilitation program for men. Tim has also preached on national and international levels, including Baha, Mexico; Honduras, and Haiti. He is the active Chaplin of the North Alabama District.
