First Baptist Church

Dayton, TN

For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, 

who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. 1 Timothy 2:3-4

Palm Sunday-Adult Choir Program, March 24th

On Palm Sunday, March 24th, during the morning service our Adult Choir will present the musical "Songs of the Cross." We hope it is a blessing!


This deeply moving collection from Jay Rouse includes six songs that glory in the cross of Christ. Highly appropriate for use throughout the Easter season, it is just as impactful year-round. It includes the classic Annie Herring "Easter Song" in an easily learned contemporary style; a gospel setting of the much-loved hymn "My Savior’s Love;" two modern worship anthems, "Broken Bread, Broken Life" and "Jesus Crucified;" the beloved Dottie Rambo song "I Will Glory in the Cross;" and an elegant setting of the timeless hymn "Beneath the Cross of Jesus." Optional narrations from gifted writer Rose Aspinall will bring the truths of scripture to life in a refreshing way. "There’s an eternal mystery in the cross, that instrument of death and grace. Hanging there by His own choosing, the Son of God purchases life for you and me."

Good Friday Service

On Good Friday, March 29th at 6 PM: “THE THREE CROSSES- Our service will include appearances from three men that were on the cross!


Easter Sunday

March 31, 7 AM: Easter SunRise Service with Breakfast - Jesus rose for us, can we rise for Him?

Romans 6:4 “Therefore we have been buried with Him through baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life.”


“There in the ground His body lay, Light of the world by darkness slain! Then bursting forth in glorious Day, Up from the grave He rose again, And as He stands in victory, Sin's curse has lost its grip on me, For I am His and He is mine, Bought with the precious blood of Christ!”

  • Church Motto

    First......that all may know Jesus.

    This is the motto of First Baptist Dayton, TN

    taken from 1 Timothy 2:3-5.

     "For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, 4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. 5 For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus,"

  • From the Pastor:

    FBC Dayton Family,

      Happy March First Baptist Family,


        Spring is coming on the 19th of this month! I know many of you are ready to put the cold air, chance of snow, and the dark evening behind you! 


        I do like Spring because we get to see nature wake up after a long winter’s nap. We see trees start to bud, and flowers begin to bloom. Spring reminds us of new life! 


        Then the ultimate reminder of new life- Resurrection Sunday! The events of Holy Week make that week the biggest in human history! 

    I hope you will celebrate with your church family. Maybe you are members that haven’t been in a while; it’s probably time to come home! 


    March 24, Palm Sunday- A great choir celebration! 


    March 29, Good Friday- “THE THREE CROSSES- Our service will include appearances from three men that were on the cross! 


    March 31, Easter SunRise Service with Breakfast - Jesus rose for us, can we rise for Him? 


    March 31, Resurrection Sunday- Celebrate the Event that gave us new life - eternal life! 

    Romans 6:4 “Therefore we have been buried with Him through baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life.”

    “There in the ground His body lay, Light of the world by darkness slain! Then bursting forth in glorious Day, Up from the grave He rose again, And as He stands in victory, Sin's curse has lost its grip on me, For I am His and He is mine, Bought with the precious blood of Christ!”
