Hello! I’m Caleb

Christ-Follower, Keynote Speaker, Author, U.S. Air Force

With a lifelong fascination for God, a deep connection with people, and a natural inclination for speaking, I have embarked on a transformative journey that has shaped my faith. After high school, I sought a change and embarked on a life-altering gap year at Montana Wilderness School of the Bible. This immersive experience ignited a profound passion for ministry and the outdoors, leading me to embrace camp ministry as a Wilderness Director & Outdoor Educator at Black Rock Retreat.

While my love for ministry was unwavering, I ventured into diverse endeavors, exploring pursuits such as EMT licensure, college education, and digital marketing. Although I briefly immersed myself in the realm of digital marketing, my heart remained tethered to the camp, and I eagerly picked up shifts whenever possible. However, I sensed a calling to embark on a profound Kingdom Journey, similar to Abraham’s departure from home without looking back. This pivotal decision propelled me towards Charis Bible College in Colorado.

Throughout my journey, the dormant desire to engage in ministry persisted within me, although I never anticipated the trials and tribulations that would shape my path. These experiences have honed my character, deepened my understanding of the human condition, and instilled in me a profound empathy for others. Now, equipped with a wealth of personal and spiritual growth, I am ready to share my insights, stories, and perspectives through the power of speaking.

My professional journey has taught me the value of authenticity, compassion, and the transformative power of words. With a genuine passion for connecting with audiences, I aim to inspire, encourage, and ignite meaningful conversations that resonate with individuals from all walks of life. Drawing from my diverse experiences, spiritual growth, and unwavering faith, I am committed to using my voice as a catalyst for positive change, personal development, and spiritual enlightenment.

As I continue on this lifelong journey, I am humbled and grateful for the opportunities that lie ahead. Through my speaking engagements, I hope to make a lasting impact, foster connections, and inspire others to embrace their own unique paths of growth, faith, and purpose.

My Approach & Values

Throughout my formative years, my focus was primarily on evangelism, driven by a desire to reach out to those who had yet to encounter the power of God’s love. However, as I delved deeper into my spiritual journey, I realized that my heart resonated with those within the Church who felt lost and bound by spiritual slavery, despite being surrounded by God’s words. This revelation has ignited a passionate calling within me to guide and uplift fellow believers, helping them experience the truth of God’s promises.

To fulfill this mission, I employ a multifaceted approach that leverages speaking engagements, podcasting, authorship, and physical meet-ups. Through these platforms, I aim to create spaces where individuals can retreat, reflect, and meditate on God’s teachings, fostering a deep and personal connection with their faith.

With unwavering compassion, empathy, and a heart rooted in faith, I am devoted to guiding individuals within the Church toward a deeper understanding of God’s truth and the realization of His promises. My sincerest desire is to witness lives transformed, relationships restored, and hearts set free as we embark on this transformative journey together.
