Who We Are
1613 Ministries is a preaching and teaching ministry founded by Rev. Caleb Davis in 2016. Rooted in 1 Corinthians 16:13 — “Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong” — our mission is to equip believers to stand firm, speak truth, and live boldly through faithful, expositional teaching.

Our Mission

• Stand Firm in the authority of Scripture.
  
  

• Share Truth with clarity and conviction.
  
  

• Live Boldly for Christ in every sphere of life.
  
  

Our Founder: Rev. Caleb Davis
Caleb is the pastor of Watts Chapel in Crab Orchard, KY, and holds degrees in Ministry, Biblical Counseling, and Christian Studies. Deeply committed to biblical fidelity and church revitalization, he launched 1613 Ministries in 2016 to address a generation drifting from foundational truths. With a passion for expository preaching, pastoral care, and digital innovation, Caleb leads this ministry to be a resource to Churches everywhere.



What We Do

• Expositional Preaching — Verse-by-verse teaching that centers on Christ and applies Scripture to real life.

• Teaching Resources — Sermons, articles, podcasts, and online courses designed for leaders, pastors, and everyday Christians.

• Equipping the Church — Strengthening individuals, revitalizing churches, and supporting digital discipleship.

• Biblical Counseling — Equipping believers to pursue heart transformation through the Word of God.
  
  

Our Core Convictions

• Inerrant Scripture: We uphold the Bible as fully inspired, truthful, and authoritative.

• Biblical Theology: We affirm classical doctrines—Trinity, Christ’s work, biblical manhood and womanhood, believer’s baptism, and symbolic Lord’s Supper.

• Heart Transformation: We believe conviction leads to transformation, not just behavior modification.

• Church-Centered Mission: We operate within local churches, seeking to strengthen their witness and impact.
  
  

Why “1613”?

This ministry is named after 1 Corinthians 16:13, a verse fundamental to the founder’s spiritual formation as a child, reminding us to stand firm in faith and courage. That same resolve continues to propel our ministry forward.
