373 Kids Ministry
About 373 Kids Ministry
Welcome to 373 Kids Ministry at First Baptist Church of Piedmont. Our mission is to engage, connect, and grow children from birth through 6th grade in Christ and to empower parents to embody servant leadership in their families. We teach kids about God, the Bible, and what it means to follow Jesus through engaging age-appropriate lessons.
Children’s Minister

Timothy was born in Claremore, Oklahoma to two godly parents who faithfully raised him up in such a way that Christ was constantly glorified and held before him and his brothers. Timothy responded to Christ in faith at the age of six and a desire to serve in the church grew in him over the years until he committed his life to full-time vocational ministry at the age of seventeen. In order to serve to the utmost of his ability, Timothy studied and graduated from Oklahoma Baptist University (B.A. in Biblical Languages) and The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary (M.Div. in Christian Ministry). Timothy and his wife Erin met at Oklahoma Baptist University. Erin enjoys creating art and singing.
Timothy’s ultimate desire is to teach the Bible in such a way that the supreme excellence and glorious beauty of Jesus
would shine forth above all else, in the hope that children and their families would see this glorious Jesus of the
Bible and come to know and devote their lives to him for his name’s sake. He also desires to come alongside parents,
equipping and supporting them as they disciple their children in fulfillment of their God-given role as parents to train
up their children in the way they should go (
Timothy is serious about the transforming and sustaining power of the gospel in the lives of children and parents alike.
He says, “There is a deep need for biblical teaching in Children’s Ministry rather than the childcare and behavior
modification mentalities that have prevailed in many churches. Children don’t need a different gospel. Children don’t
need a lesser, easier gospel. Children need the same gospel that everyone else needs. They need the gospel of Jesus
Christ that is able to transform and sustain the hearts of those who believe by grace through faith (
Preschool


At FBC Piedmont, we are dedicated to providing a safe and nurturing place for our babies through kindergarten-aged children. Preschool kids are full of wonder as they grow and learn in leaps and bounds in the first five years of their lives. We partner with parents during these exciting and pivotal years to build a strong spiritual foundation by teaching our preschoolers about Jesus and pouring God’s Word and love into them. Our preschool ministry includes Sunday School classes with age-appropriate lessons, extended classes during the Sunday morning Worship service and Sunday evening Bible studies, and even a weekday Mother’s Day Out program.
Generations of Grace Curriculum (Sunday School)
We use the Generations of Grace Sunday school curriculum, children are lead through the narrative of Scripture, from Genesis through Revelation, outlining God’s redemptive plan. Each year the curriculum covers a different part of Scripture. Over the nine-year period a child spends, Generations of Grace will lead that child through God’s redemptive plan three times, each at a deeper level.
Generations of Grace curriculum is set up as a “unified curriculum” for this very reason. Every week, children in each age range learn from the same passage of Scripture in a way that is appropriate for their respective age levels. A unified curriculum enables families to discuss one passage together each week, reinforcing the lesson children have learned in Sunday School.
Elementary
Our children’s ministry is for kids 1st grade through 6th grade. Our purpose is to continue building on the foundation taught during preschool to help children develop and grow in their relationship with Jesus. There are multiple opportunities throughout the week to study the Bible, learn how to praise and worship God, make new friends and build a Godly community. Through age-appropriate worship and Bible studies, our children grow in their relationship with Jesus, learn to serve, and become empowered to share Christ with their friends and community. Our children’s ministry includes Sunday School classes and Sunday evening Bible studies.

Kids Worship

Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me and do not
hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.”
Each Kids Worship group practices on Sunday evening at 5 pm during the fall and spring. The choirs come together to prepare a Christmas program each year and also present a spring concert at the end of the school year. In the spring, the age-appropriate curriculum includes rhythm and instrument use and games, learning about music and worship, and of course lots of singing.
