Come join me! Kim Norton, Founder & Head Big Kid
Who?
The Kingdom Kidz Club is the brain-child of Founder & Head Big Kid Kim Norton. Kim has had the opportunity to lead children & adults full-time for eight years under Pastor Jerry Riddle in Little Rock, Arkansas and now throughout the country. Kim lives with her husband Patrick and their girls, Rebecca & Leah in Northwest Arkansas.
When & Where?
The Kingdom Kidz Club is meant to become more of a lifestyle than a curriculum or program. Our lives are busy and jam-packed! The Kingdom Kidz Club is perfect in the car, minivan or SUV while you are driving to and from practices, rehearsals and lessons. If you will listen to the Kingdom Kidz Club CD 2-3 times per week, you will learn 12-13 verses within a few short months!
How?
The mission of The Kingdom Kidz Club is to lead, encourage and inspire (ourselves and) others to grow from where they are to where God created them to be. This one-of-a-kind club offers Kidz and Big Kidz (a.k.a. parent's, grandparent's, guardians) an opportunity to grow together minute by minute in their knowledge of God's Word through fun and easy songs and material as well as meaningful interaction both virtually on the web and at home through CD and DVD.
What?
The Kingdom Kidz Club began in 1999 in Kim's minivan as a way to get God's Word into her daughters. As a full-time staff minister and singer/songwriter, the marriage of music & the Bible was a natural fit. As she started adding verses, she began to share these verses with the children at Eagle Point Church in Little Rock, Arkansas and at various daycares and preschools throughout Central Arkansas. Calls began to come in from parents wanting to know how their kids were learning so much about the Bible and how they could learn it for themselves. It was then that Kim realized God's vision for The Kingdom Kidz Club.
Why?
The Kingdom Kidz Club is, in part, the answer to the dilemma of how to spiritually nourish stressed-out, time-challenged families. As Christian parent's, we understand the need for family time that is set aside for God, but acknowledge the struggle of teaching our children the Bible and the stigma that comes with it. As ministers, we understand that providing spiritual guidance and leadership in the family can be very intimidating. So the need for resources and a plan to assist families who desire family spiritual growth is our passion!
In Matthew Chapter 18, Jesus gives the vision for this ministry so eloquently. "At the time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, 'Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?' He called a little child and had him stand among them. And he said, 'I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me.' "
In a nutshell, the most effective way for parent's to teach their children about God's Word is by becoming a kid again!
