Salvation comes through repentance, baptism in Jesus' name, and the infilling of the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:38). We proclaim the oneness of God, with Jesus Christ as the fullness of the Godhead (Colossians 2:9). The Church is called to be set apart, operating in spiritual authority, miracles, and the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19-20).
Scripture is the infallible, inspired Word of God, our ultimate authority in faith and life (2 Timothy 3:16-17). It reveals God’s plan for salvation and holiness through Jesus Christ. We commit to preaching truth without compromise and living by biblical principles.
There is one God who reveals Himself as Father in creation, Son in redemption, and Holy Spirit in regeneration (Deuteronomy 6:4, 1 Timothy 3:16). Jesus Christ is God manifested in the flesh (John 1:1, 14), and the Holy Spirit empowers believers for Kingdom work.
Apostle Xavier Smith is a visionary leader, a dynamic preacher, and a devoted servant of God, committed to seeing lives transformed through the power of Jesus Christ. As the founder and Senior Pastor of The Shift Collective, he carries a divine mandate to equip believers, activate faith, and lead a generation into a deeper walk with God.
Since answering the call to ministry on November 10, 2019, Apostle Smith has demonstrated unwavering dedication to Kingdom work. His ministry is marked by profound wisdom, bold teaching, and an unshakable commitment to truth. Recognized for his humility and apostolic authority, he has been a catalyst for change—empowering individuals to shift into their God-ordained purpose.
Raised in a faith-filled environment, Apostle Smith was introduced to the church at a young age but was never pressured—allowing him to personally embrace Christ and develop a genuine, unshakable faith. His journey has been one of intentional pursuit, and now, he carries that same passion into his ministry, creating a church where people of all backgrounds can experience God for themselves.
Highly regarded among his peers and within the body of Christ, Apostle Smith’s influence extends beyond the pulpit. His heart beats for revival, discipleship, and equipping a generation to walk in power, holiness, and spiritual authority. Through The Shift Collective, he is leading a movement that is bridging generations, shifting mindsets, and expanding the Kingdom of God.
