One of the most powerful preachers of the Word of God in the modern era, J. Harold Smith pastored several churches, including the First Baptist Church of Ft. Smith, Arkansas from 1950-1959. Saved as a young man after having completed 8 years of training to become a medical doctor, J. Harold Smith is probably most famous for his message, 'God's Three Deadlines,' which can be found in our search system, along with many others he preached in revivals across our nation.
