DALLAS — The16,000-member First Baptist Church of Dallas, pastored by Dr. Robert Jeffress, was announced Sunday, October 26, as the “Best Church in the DFW Metroplex,” as voted on by readers of The Dallas Morning News.
The congregation has been located in downtown Dallas for 157 years, where it now occupies six city blocks.
Dr. Jeffress, who has served as the Pastor since 2007, is known throughout the world for his bold, biblical, and practical teaching of the Bible.
