Hi, I'm Robert Jeffress, and I'm glad to serve as your Bible teacher every day on this great radio station.

On today's edition of Pathway to Victory,

spiritual development, but to be salt, a preservative and to be light in this

decaying and darkening world.

Welcome to Pathway to Victory with author and pastor Dr Robert Jeffress.

it seems as if our nation is spiraling deeper and deeper into moral decline.

Now here's our Bible teacher to introduce today's message.

Dr. from the First Baptist Church in Dallas, where I've been privileged to serve as senior pastor since 2007.

and ministry.

with several hundred pastors, I urge them to speak with authority

and without fear about America's only hope, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
