Sheila Layton Episode 37

What do you do when life throws you limitations before you even learn to walk?

Elder Logan Castleton was born with a heart condition that led to three surgeries before he was two. Sports weren’t an option growing up, but that didn’t stop him from finding his own rhythm—through rap. Now serving a service mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Elder Castleton is using his musical talents to share the gospel in a way that’s anything but ordinary.

Known online as “The Rapping Missionary,” he turns faith-filled messages and Primary songs into engaging rap tracks that uplift and inspire. His journey is a powerful reminder that God doesn’t need us to fit a mold—He just needs our heart.

🎧 Tune in to hear how Elder Castleton turned a lifelong health challenge into a testimony on fire—with a beat.

👉 Watch now and feel the faith-filled rhythm of a missionary who’s using music to move hearts.
