This episode is an exposition of Philippians 4:16–17, “Generosity Bears Spiritual Fruit,” from our Senior Executive Pastor, Dr. Ben Lovvorn. Paul is not using these verses as a strategy or gimmick to get the Philippians to increase their financial gifts. Instead, Paul has a genuine desire for the spiritual good of others. That same motivation drives us here at First Baptist Dallas. Giving is ultimately not about anything we want from you. True generosity leads to spiritual fruit now and in eternity—which is what we want for you!
Along these lines, we invite you to partner with us to support the mission of First Baptist Dallas, which includes creating biblical resources like this podcast by giving online here: firstdallas.org/fbdgive.
Dr. Ben Lovvorn serves as our Senior Executive Pastor. Nate Curtis is our Associate Executive Pastor. Andrew Bobo is our Associate Executive Pastor, Practical Theology.
