Today we’re wrapping up our One Desire series! We’ll talk together about the end of Psalm 90, our prayer as we launch Mission 1:8 One Desire and make our two-year commitments to this effort. This prayer of Moses has so much to teach us! We’re asking that God would satisfy us with His faithful love and establish the work of our hands.

The ambition of our lives should be to please our Lord Jesus Christ. But what does that look like? How can make Him our one desire? We’ll talk about these questions together, as we walk through the second half of our One Desire Discipleship Guide. Dr. Ben Lovvorn leads us through an exposition of 2 Corinthians 4:16–5:10, focusing especially on 5:9, which is our theme verse for One Desire.

We just launched our next two-year ministry plan, Mission 1:8 One Desire! This effort revolves around a core question that we need to ask ourselves… is Jesus Christ the one desire of our hearts? In this episode, we’ll talk about what we can learn and apply to our lives from Parable of the Sower, found in Mark 4:1–20. This conversation, led by Dr. Ben Lovvorn, is intended to walk you through the first half of our One Desire Discipleship Guide.

This is the second episode in our two-part series on the Mission and Vision of the church. Dr. Ben Lovvorn leads an exposition and discussion centered on the Great Commission, found in Matthew 28:18–20. The church’s mission is global, but it’s vision is deeply personal. Transformation happens one life at a time, as we’re conformed to Christ’s image through submission to God’s Word.

In this first episode in our two-part series on mission and vision, we’ll do a deep dive on Acts 1:1–11. This passage helps us understand the church’s mission and how we’re called to go about accomplishing it. Dr. Ben Lovvorn walks us through God’s Word and reminds us at First Dallas why we have “Mission 1:8.” We seek to “transform the world with God’s Word one life at a time” in obedience to the final instructions that Christ gave us!

In this final episode of our series on 2 Timothy, Dr. Ben Lovvorn talks about all of the people Paul mentions at the end of his letter. Don’t skip over these final verses! This is where we get a glimpse into the way Paul lived his life and did ministry. It was all about people. Ben, Andrew, and Nate also discuss some unsung heroes here at First Dallas, as well as a key takeaway each of them had from this study.

Why is First Baptist Dallas “Built on the Bible”? The answer is found in 2 Timothy 3:10–17, which we’ll discuss today. God’s Word is God-breathed, inerrant, infallible, instructive, authoritative, and enduring. We’ll talk about what that means for us and how God’s Word should shape our lives.
