Jimmy Smith - Executive Pastor
Jimmy was born and raised in Oklahoma. He and Amanda met when they were 3 years old in Sunday School at the church where Amanda's dad is still the Pastor. Both went to Baptist Bible College in Springfield, Missouri, and majored in Missions & Bible. They were married while in college in 1996 and graduated in 1999.
After graduation, Jimmy took a position as the Youth & Assistant Pastor at their home church in Collinsville, Oklahoma. After a fruitful ministry there, in 2002 they felt God calling them into church planting. Jimmy accepted a position as the Administrative Pastor of Life Church in Temecula, California, and helped to build the church from the ground up. While at Life Church, Jimmy was also able to pursue his other passion of missions. During his years there, he led teams to Mexico, Fiji, Romania, and China. He continues working in that passion at SFC by leading the missions program and mobilizing short-term teams to minister arond the world.
Jimmy and Amanda have two little girls, Callie & Cara - and a new baby boy, Ozzie James.

Jim moved around quite a bit growing up. Louisville, Colorado is where Jim spent his childhood before his family moved to the Northwest. After college Jim served in the U.S. Army and then earned a master's degree from Southwestern Seminary. In 1993 Jim married Dana (he says this was his best move ever!), and they have two teenage daughters: Taylor and Gabrielle.
In 2002, Jim and Dana moved to Denver. They sensed the Lord leading them to Stapleton in 2003 to reach this community. Jim is grateful and humbled to be a part of what God is doing at Stapleton Fellowship Church.
In addition to spending time with his three girls, Jim enjoys being with friends, seeking adventure of any kind, and has one rule: ‘Don’t talk bad about the Broncos in his house’. He's a Johnny Cash fan, his hobbies are too numerous to mention, and he has recently traded in a pizza addiction for starvation.
