About the Bible
At Dallas Church we believe the Bible is God's Word. Our foundation is based firmly upon the Bible as our final authority
on Christian beliefs and as a guide to life. The Bible is divinely inspired, without error, given to man so we may know and understand the truth of God and His love.
The Bible is not simply one book but a collection of 66 documents written across roughly 1500 years that tell the Story of God.

Bema Discipleship Podcast
This podcast by Marty Solomon (a Boise Bible College Alum like Ben and Andrew) offers a fresh perspective on the great big story of God. While our team might not agree with everything this podcast puts forth, we have been encouraged and challenged to think differently about how the Old and New Testament connect, about how God's people are to build peace and not empires in their world and to approach Scripture with the eyes of the original audience.
