Church Motto
First......that all may know Jesus.
This is the motto of First Baptist Dayton, TN
taken from 1 Timothy 2:3-5.
"For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, 4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. 5 For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus,"

From the Pastor:
FBCD Family,
Angie and I are excited to be here with you! It is truly an honor to be your pastor. I believe the Lord is going to do some wonderful things here at First Baptist Church, Dayton!
Psalm 11:3 says, “If the foundations are destroyed, what will the righteous do?”
Certainly, we could agree that our foundations are being destroyed! The very principles of our Christian faith are being attacked every day by everyone from liberal activist groups to Hollywood, to Washington, D.C., to forces within the global church.
What do we do? How do we respond? Like everything else we do, we respond in a Biblical way.
We have to make sure our foundations are correct!
1. Have a correct view of the Gospel
2. Study and know the Word of God
3. Live out what Scripture teaches
4. Fall head-over-heels in love with Jesus
5. Love the Church--Be Faithful
6. Share the Gospel--Witness to lost folks
7. Defend the oppressed
8. Address the needs of the poor
9. Live out the Biblical role of the family
10. Lead when it’s needed, but submit to those
in authority
If we put Jesus in the proper place, He told Peter and us; “upon this rock I will build My church; and the gates of Hades will not overpower it.”
Pastor Bob Schafer
