[edit] Religion

Grant grew up in a Christian home and although he prayed a prayer of commitment as a five-year-old, he recommitted his life at age 13 whilst on a camp. Grant made a public declaration of his faith in Jesus at age 18 when he was baptised. Grant states that he "discovered God's amazing grace for the first time only a handful of years ago. Throughout my life, and even today, I become aware of areas of my life that I have not yet fully surrendered to Jesus." Grant is currently based in Nashville TN and a spokesperson for Compassion International.
