He was raised on the farmlands of Swanton , Ohio along with his four older brothers. Even at the age of 2 years old Rodney could be heard joyfully singing around the house. Rodney however, was also an extremely shy person in his younger years and was only comfortable when singing around his immediate family. His mother would often encourage him to sing in front of other people, but he could not get past his fear. He recalls her saying, “You’ve got a gift boy! Just let it out and let God use you!” These encouraging words, along with the support of his church family caused him to begin to realize the powerful gift that he had on the inside. Rodney began singing in the Cornerstone Church youth ministry At the age of 16. (Cornerstone Church-Toledo, Ohio Pastor Michael S.
