His grandfather, James Marvin Camp, was a fireman in Hapeville for more thanyears. According to Foxworthy, who grew up in the old Southern Baptist tradition, he remembers accepting Jesus Christ when he wasyears old. When he told his mother that he wanted to go down to the local sanctuary to accept Christ as his Lord and Savior, his mother, who felt he was too young, told him to wait until he had a firmer understanding of the undertaking. Foxworthy argued with her until a preacher came to their home and vouched for Foxworthy, who went back to the church that night with his mother. Despite this, Foxworthy says that complying with the oftenstrict rules of the church were difficult for him, saying, I love God, but I cant act and dress like that.
