Let's Be Honest About What's Competing for Your Kids' Hearts

Screens and social media are forming your kids whether you intended it or not.

Faith can feel complicated, heavy, or disconnected from real life.

You're parenting with intention, but the enrichment gap is real, especially as they get older.

You don't have to figure this out alone.

Founder's Story

Jesus Was a Camper, LLC is inspired by my time as an at-risk youth counselor at Joseph Pfeifer Kiwanis Camp in Little Rock, Arkansas from 2013-2015. That was the single most important experience of my life; I was never the same.

One day the camp's legendary director, Sanford Tollette, said: "You know, Dustin...Jesus was a camper." That phrase had a special meaning then and still does.

I wrote a song of the same name years ago but never thought it would go any further...until now. Especially in a world of constant noise and screens, that phrase is more relevant than ever, and it holds a significant truth with how Jesus lived His life outdoors rooted in real connection.

I've seen the power of people in community, outside in harmony with what matters most. I've seen it change lives; I've seen it change mine.

I am on a mission inspired by that experience to support children and families to unplug, reconnect with God and grow in faith.
