Todd Smith (singer)
James Todd Smith (who goes by Todd Smith) is a singer and founding member of the contemporary Christian music band Selah. Smith remains an original member since its founding in 1997.
==Early life==
Smith grew up the son of missionaries in Zaire, Africa (now the Democratic Republic of the Congo) in a home built by his grandparents, who had been missionaries to the continent since the 1930s. His grandfather worked as a dentist in the United States before moving to Zaire. Smith's father was born in Africa, but later moved to Detroit, Michigan. Both Smith's grandparents died in Africa.〔Sunday Evening Praise. http://sundayeveningpraise.net/praise/selah.htm〕
Smith's family home burned to the ground when he was five. After the fire, his father felt a call to the mission field of Africa. Smith's father moved his mother, three siblings, and himself from Detroit, Michigan to Africa. His family remained there for the next eight years.〔
Smith has remarked that he never questioned his Biblical teaching.〔(The Fish )〕 Smith gives credit for his music career to his missionary upbringing. "I've been singing in front of people since I was three," he said. "My parents are missionaries. When we came back to the United States, we had to visit each church that sponsored us. That was a good training ground."〔(''The News-Sentinel'' )〕 Smith is married to Angie Smith and they have five daughters: Abby and her twin sister Ellie, Kate, Audrey Caroline, and Charlotte. Audrey Caroline Smith was born on April 7, 2008 and died a few hours later due to cardiac issues. Audrey Caroline is buried in Harpeth Hills Memory Gardens in Nashville, Tennessee. Angie wrote two books called ''I Will Carry You: The Sacred Dance of Grief and Joy'' and ''What Women Fear: Walking in Faith that Transforms''.
