Joshua Smith

St James UMC
Student Pastor
Bowling Green, KY
As I was graduating from Asbury Seminary with a degree in Pastoral Counseling, I found myself unsure as to what my next phase would entail. I moved to Bowling Green, KY where I had gone to college in hopes this was where I was to be. Luckily, I was right and had followed God's leading well. My second Sunday at St James, middle school students stood before the congregation pleading for a leader to give them their own ministry. Right away, I was hooked. I have changed roles over the past seven years, but I am still hooked to the craziness that is Student Ministry. I never imagined or dreamed I would be in Student Ministry, but I would not trade what I do for anything, unless God leads to something else. I feel so blessed and am constantly blown away that God chooses to use me in this way. God never ceases to amaze me!
