The
vision that God has given Bishop is not just learned, it is experienced.
God told Bishop Smith to raise up a people who would praise Him, worship
Him, learn of Him, obey Him, and reach the world with the power of
His love. He believes that whoever you are, wherever you are, if you
are available, God can use you, your time, talents, and your treasure
to help change the world.
A great Spiritual Awakening is now taking place, throughout the world
and we have unparalleled opportunity to become involved. Bishop Smith
believes that the awakening of the first century will be duplicated
in our time through the church, the body of Christ, under the direction
and control of the Holy Spirit, as Christians win people to Christ,
build them in faith and send them out into ministry of discipleship,
