Russ
As a teacher and homeschool dad in the 1980s, Russ was among many who were concerned about families in Colorado who had to defend their efforts to homeschool in court. He joined arms with other homeschool pioneers who helped form the first homeschool organization in Colorado: the Colorado Home Educators’ Association, (CHEA). This organization advocated for homeschooling and helped establish the first homeschool laws in Colorado, allowing homeschool families to benefit from the many freedoms and rights we enjoy today. By sharing his personal experience, Russ demonstrates how homeschooling unites families, revives communities, and strengthens faith.

Caleb Price was born in a small town in Northern California and spent his teenage years touring in a rock band and eating cold pizza. Deciding it was time to move past splitting $60 between five dudes in a smelly van every day, he pursued filmmaking and graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelors degree in film production from Brooks Institute in Southern California.
Producing and directing became a full time endeavor as he created music videos, commercials, and short films, before moving into feature length projects. His first feature film, “Connect” starring Kirk Cameron was broadcast in over 700 theaters and licensed by Netflix shortly after. Caleb then produced and directed a tv show called “One On One”, featuring multiple guests in a non-traditional environment discussing faith, family, and politics. “One On One” was picked up by Netflix in 2021. Caleb also produced and directed “The Homeschool Awakening” where you can join Kirk Cameron as he dives into the adventures of dynamic American families on a mission to put fun and faith back into learning.
Caleb has been producing and editing for over 15 years. As a husband, and homeschool parent to five kids, discipleship is very close to his heart and guides the types of shows that he produces. From development through post production, Caleb believes in working with strong teams to produce top tier content that uplifts, inspires, and encourages.

Producing and directing became a full time endeavor as he created music videos, commercials, and short films, before moving into feature length projects. His first feature film, “Connect” starring Kirk Cameron was broadcast in over 700 theaters and licensed by Netflix shortly after. Caleb then produced and directed a tv show called “One On One”, featuring multiple guests in a non-traditional environment discussing faith, family, and politics. “One On One” was picked up by Netflix in 2021. Caleb also produced and directed “The Homeschool Awakening” where you can join Kirk Cameron as he dives into the adventures of dynamic American families on a mission to put fun and faith back into learning.
Caleb has been producing and editing for over 15 years. As a husband, and homeschool parent to five kids, discipleship is very close to his heart and guides the types of shows that he produces. From development through post production, Caleb believes in working with strong teams to produce top tier content that uplifts, inspires, and encourages.

Braxton Rogers is a 16 year old banjo player originating from Lawton, OK. However, if you ask him where he’s from he may struggle to tell you because he has been traveling the country in an RV with his parents the past 4 years exploring the National Parks and attending music festivals and banjo camps. He has been studying and playing banjo seriously for about two years now and loves it more everyday. Last fall he won first place in the Oklahoma International Bluegrass Festival Banjo Competition. He recently filmed an episode for Season 2 of Woodsongs Kids and played at MerleFest in Wilkesboro, NC as an Ambassador for the Andy May’s Acoustic Kids Program. He is also a cast member of Smoky Mountain Tunes and Tales in Gatlinburg, TN. He has written and released his first single “Miss You to the Moon” which can be found on all your music streaming platforms.
