eXclaim! Toledo 2010
Aug 17th
eXclaim! Toledo 2010 was an amazing event! I cannot believe how awesome it was. Paul and I had a great time. We were able to meet and talk with Jackie Francois and her band. They are some great people. I was pretty nervous before we went on stage but as soon as we started to play and sing I was fine. Thank you to all of you that came out to support The Jacob’s Well Experience. We totally appreciate it. Without you we would be playing music for ourselves. God truly blessed us to have the opportunity to play music to praise Him and to help others praise Him. Please continue to pray for Paul, myself and The Jacob’s Well Experience as our ministries continue to grow into what God wants them to be.
Being on the stage just made me think about how blessed we are. God really can do anything. I have dreams and God keeps making them come true. Make sure you thank God for all of the gifts that he has given you. You may think that you have to look hard to find them but God gives us gifts and miracles on a daily basis we More >
Forgiven & Fight Song Live
Jun 14th
As you know Paul Davis and I played some music to compete for an opening spot for Matt Maher. We made it. Here is a video of Fight Song and a video of Forgiven. Both of these songs are written by me. Forgiven happens to be my favorite song I’ve written so far. I put a recording of Fight Song up a while ago. I hope you enjoy them.

Opening Slot for Matt Maher
Jun 8th
On June 7th I competed along side of Paul Davis as Jacob’s Well in a “battle of the bands” for an opening spot for Matt Maher in August. There were two opening slots available and we got one of them. We competed against eight groups and got the runner up position only second to “The Universal Worship Experience,” a seven piece, powerful band. They were amazing and we are excited to listen to them again in August. Paul and I are super excited for this opportunity.

Justin and Paul as Jacob’s Well
May 19th
I will be playing with Paul Davis as Jacob’s Well. We are competing for a chance to open up for Matt Maher at eXclaim Toledo on August 15th. There are two thirty minute opening slots for local musicians. To decide who will be the openers there is a local talent competition.
The Local Talent Competition will be held: at 6:00 p.m., Monday, June 7, 2010 at Notre Dame Academy. The first and second place winners will have the opportunity to give a 30 minute show at 2:00 p.m. or 2:45 p.m. on the main stage.
We need you out there to give us your support! One of the things that we will be judged on is crowd support/interaction. Come cheer us on!
