A quote often attributed St. Francis of Assisi goes “Preach the Gospel at all times. When necessary, use words.” First Baptist Church is passionate about preaching the gospel through our actions and financial resources. If you want to understand what a church, or any group truly believes, pay attention to their budget and what they spend the most time working on.
