Benjamin is passionately in love with Jesus! He is the lover of his beautiful wife and his children's daddy. "I love what I do and am glad God made me who I am and that I am His", says Benjamin. Born in Milledgeville, GA, he grew up in a ministering family. Being about three generations deep of ministers, he considers that a great heritage to have and is thankful for the call of God upon his life. He made Jesus Christ the Lord of his life when he was 5 years old, began singing with his family around that time and began playing music at age 7. Benjamin traveled all over Georgia, with some ventures into South Carolina, Alabama and other various venues. While growing up his family pastored as well as evangelized. At the age of fifteen he began speaking the word of God to youth and adults along with his Dad, Curtis and brother, Jon, and the family ministry grew to include this in there travels. Later on Benjamin took his first full time position as Youth Pastor/Music Pastor in Alabama and then went on to work with a wonderful pastor and church family in New Albany, Indiana were he grew in music and leadership. In 2001 he met his beautiful wife, Rachael at the Indiana Assembly of God District Youth Camp and ten months later they were married and they now have 3 beautiful children. They now reside in Fenton, Michigan where they minister at The Freedom Center, a rapidly growing congregation with 2 live worship projects and a Christmas project. With the gift of writing, Benjamin even showcased a song which appeared on Clint Brown's project 'Nothin' But Church'. The song has been performed by others including Eric Lopez. His desire is to lift up the name of Jesus and to make his life an offering of worship to Him daily. He also desires to bless God's with the talents and gifts God has given him!
