Caleb's Journey to Ocean's Edge

Donation protected
Hello dear friends and family!

Thanks for clicking on this link.  Below is a short summary of my journey and the reason for this email.  I really appreciate you taking the time to read this or watch my video!

My Journey...
After a semester at Georgia Gwinnett College last fall, I felt like I was in the wrong place. My heart was still searching for my purpose and direction for the next stage in my life. 

Just after that semester, I came across Ocean's Edge School of Worship.  My Dad and I drove down to Ft. Lauderdale to check it out. It was a perfect fit...Intense training in music and worship leading, discipleship from those who have walked this journey before, music studios to continue writing and recording, and community outreach to help those who need  to hear the Good News of Jesus Christ!

This is simply an invitation for any of you who might want to partner with me in prayer and/or financially as I continue to pursue my life's purpose to follow the Lord, write and sing music that encourages the heart, and brings glory to God.

I have had so many people pour into me over the years, which has brought me to where I am today.  My first Single was released earlier this year and just exceeded 100,000 plays on Spotify.  It is a song called "I Choose You," inspired by my sister Alicia, who when she was only 14 years old, asked if I could someday write a song for her future wedding.  I agreed, and she was married  eight years later in 2018.

If you are receiving this invitation, it means that you have touched me and/or my family in some way.  Thanks so much, and I so appreciate your partnership and making it possible to further develop the gifts and vision that God has given to me.

I have included a brief breakdown of the expenses below.

Much Love,
