About Me

What up?! My name's Ben Caldwell, and my wonderful wife and I have been married for four glorious years. We have a son (Caleb) who was born in the fall of '03. I'm a youth pastor in the great state of North Carolina (GO TARHEELS!) My wife is the greatest kindergarten teacher this world has ever seen. My son is...well, he's a handful, but we love him to death. Wanna know more, just ask us!OUR SCREEN NAME ON AIM IS: HAYPASIZZLEI edited my profile at Freeweblayouts.net , check out these Myspace Layouts!

My Interests

Serving God with all we are--everything else is secondary. Spending time with family and friends, sports, singing, and traveling are all things we're interested in. Also, I'm a HUGE Michael Jordan fan!!!

I'd like to meet:

I'm here to network with my family and friends from all over the place. I figured this was as good a place as any. Just hit us up if you'd like to get to know us!

Music:

Okay, there's way too many to mention them all, but I'll just hit on a couple: Toby Mac, Pillar, GVB, Avalon, Phillips, Craig, & Dean, Casting Crowns, Mercy Me, Kirk Franklin, Hillsong, Justin Timberlak, James Taylor, Rascal Flatts, Journey, Brian McKnight, a little ACDC, "love songs" in general. That's a short list that only scratches the surface. Also, I love Charlie Brown Christmas--here's a clip with a twist--It's Hey Ya Charlie Brown!!!

Movies:

Tommy Boy, Dumb and Dumber, The Notebook, Fighting Tempations, ALL the Rockys, Top Gun, The Unfinished Life, Rebound, Both Sister Acts, Anything with Adam Sandler in it (except for Little Nicky). Once again, I'm sure there's more...many more. Oh, and I love this clip of Howard Dean!

Television:

Seinfeld "This is going to be a shame", The Office, Law and Order (SVU and Criminal Intent), American Idol (Elliott Yamin for President--he was robbed!), Sportscenter, Yes Dear, Everybody Loves Raymond, Tarheels Basketball--there's more, and I guess I could add 'em later. Here's a fave clip from Dave Chapelle...

Books:

The Bible (KJV 1611 Version--yeah right!), Anything by Jim Cymbala, The Purpose Driven Life, God's Blogs, Blue Like Jazz, anything by Rob Bell (see video clip below) and the list goes on...

Heroes:

Jesus Christ, my wonderful wife and son, our families, anyone who follows Christ boldy and unashamed, and the youth pastors I work alongside of (see clip(s) below)

Lord, forgive my selfishness!

Well, it is once again AMAZING how God works because I was at a pretty low point yesterday. I had really wrestled with what got me there--why I felt as though life seemed to be the same old hum ho rou...
