Rev. Nicholas A. Smith is the executive pastor of Bethany Baptist Church in Lindenwold, New Jersey, where he assists pastor/teacher Bishop David G. Evans.
Smith accepted Christ at the age of nine and knew he was called to ministry. He frequently went to prisons and churches to minister, teach, and preach during his adolescence. He became licensed to preach at the age of nineteen, and was ordained as a minister three years later. In December of 2003, Smith became executive pastor at Bethany Baptist, a role that involves assisting Bishop Evans, overseeing staff, operations, and church ministries.
Smith’s life scripture is Jer. 1:5–10. His desire is to preach a life-giving word for souls to be saved and to teach a life-altering word to build up the Christian community to fulfill their God-given purpose.
