Chris Bottoms
Student Minister
(972) 288-5407
Jesus called Chris to salvation through a Ken Freeman rally in June 1994 and has been a member of First Baptist Church
since 1996.  In his time at FBC, Chris has been actively involved in Youth Ministry as a student, teacher, volunteer,
and—since December 2004—as the Minister to Students.  Chris comes from a family in ministry; his father and brother
both serve on other church staffs in ministry positions. Chris’ passion is to train young people to be disciples of Christ,
loving God and serving as God’s people are commanded in Holy Scripture.  

Family: Chris and his wife, Kristen, were high school sweethearts and have been together since 1994.  They were married in
July 1998 and have three sons: Jesse, Aaron, and Joshua.
Favorite Part of Youth Ministry:  My favorite thing about youth ministry is “seeing the light come on”.  When a young person
comes to an understanding of God’s Grace, the Truth of His Word, or whatever—that is genuinely moving and so exciting!
Favorite TV show: When I have time to watch TV, I make a point to catch 24 and The Office. I’ve also gotten into
Hannity & Colmes.  Of course, if the Mavericks or Cowboys are on, everything else gets DVRed.
Favorite recent/old movie: I love movies!  Old...new...it doesn’t matter—I love ‘em.  Well...I love good ones, that is. 
I’m a big fan of superhero movies...love a good war movie, too.
Favorite Food: I like meat...especially off the grill.
Favorite Childhood Cartoon: My favorite cartoon when I was a kid...so many to choose from...G. I. Joe...Transformers...
classic Looney Tunes (especially the Coyote & Road Runner)...and Johnny Quest.
