After spending a year and a half looking for a church home, Jonathan and Erica Webb found their way to First Baptist Dallas through an email Jonathan’s dad forwarded them. After visiting, they quickly got plugged into the Young Marrieds Ministry and found community in their Sunday School class. Their time at First Dallas has been about more than just finding a church; it’s been about growing stronger in their faith. What started as a casual visit to hear a guest speaker turned into finding the church they had been praying for.
