My eight-year-old daughter has been planning for years to ride the Agony with me as soon as she turns 16. At her age she doesn't understand the full significance of the Ranch and the Ride, but she knows the Ranch students, and she loves them. That's enough for her. And that's enough for me, too. As soon as you know just one student, you understand the immense importance of this bike ride. The amount of money we raise will determine how well we can care for them. Please give if you can!

Good luck on the race!
GO NATE!
I will be praying for your strength and endurance. Thank you for being part of our family as well as caring so much for the salvation and future of the youth who God leads to The Ranch.
God bless you and all the participants, Nate. Safe travels 😎
Hi Nate - think on this as you ride: 16 The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, 17 and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together. 18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. God bless you, brother, with His Strength, Peace, Joy, and Love, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
Nate - you and God have brought so much growth to CEM, and you've joined the Agony Army riding so many rides. We are sponsoring 5 other long-time riders/friends, and we'll be praying God watch over you all. Hugh & Cindy
You've trained like a mad man, now it's time to put it to the test :) Remember who you are riding for when the heat beats on your back, the sweat is in your eyes, the chill is in your bones, and when you can't feel your toes anymore. Thank you for your sacrificial love and not just for the Ranch :) love you
Ezekiel 34: You lead us with good shepherding. You do the work to steer clear from false shepherding.
We are praying for you, Sohn. We love you!!!

Nathaniel, thank you for making this ride. Thank you for caring for the hurting. Thank you for following Jesus example and listening for his direction. Andy, Briane, and Collin Eggert. (Formerly Briane Kneynsberg).
Nate, thanks so much for riding! Miss you guys out there and I pray everything is going well, and that the Lord is continuing to bless your work there. Ride hard, be safe, and keep your eyes set on Jesus. He is all that you need for each moment.

You got this, Nate!
Good luck out there brother stay hydrated
MC5! Quite a few years since you've gone by that name but I'm pretty sure that guy could ride pretty far! Pretty incredible the lasting legacy of service for HIS kingdom, from camp to ranch and many places in between. Praying for a smooth ride!
Thank you for leading by following the Lord! Your passion for His kingdom and this ministry are evident in your ride. It’s a privilege to follow you as you follow Christ! Much love -KJ
Nate, You are crushing it!!!! It's so inspiring to watch the numbers RISE from Virginia and think about all the effort, hard work and sacrifice you each are showing!! We're praying for you, everyone involved in the ride and the ranch and for God to mightily use the funds raised!! :) Kendall's mom
You’ve got this, Nate!!
Way to go Nate! Keep up the great work!!!
Praise God, His mercies are new every morning! Praying that you feel that in a tangible way today as the sun comes up 🌞
Go brother! Praying for you and cheering you on! Grateful to be in gospel partnership with you even while on opposite sides of the country!
i have yet to see your face without a smile pulling into beckwourth. your delight for the ranch (corporate) and the ranch (individual) is a blessing to me!
Deep calls to deep at the roar of your waterfalls; all your breakers and your waves have gone over me. By day the Lord commands his steadfast love, and at night his song is with me, a prayer to the God of my life. Psalm‬ â€42‬:â€7‬-â€8‬ â€â€” praying for you!
Wow Nate! You’re doing awesome. Hopefully no more bugs needed warming up this year. May you know Gods grace and presence tonight as you ride.
Keep it up dude! As you get sore and tired, let your mind consider Jesus’ journey from Gethsemane to the Cross. Truly agonizing. Yet, the same power that rose Him from the grave is in you. I’m praying the Holy Spirit gives you what you need to endure.
Way to go Nate! God speed and keep up the great work!
Go Nate go!
Way to go Nate, keep up the good work & this pace! Praying over your ride: for an amazing experience with God as you are in His creation, for strength and stamina, and that no bugs fly in your ears. What a beautiful way to lead your family and your Ranch family as you show them how to do hard things!
yeahhhhh, nate!!!! thank you for your love for the Lord and the ranch and for your continued service to the ranch fam! cheering you on from az!!!
"I think Uncle Nathaniel should ride a camel instead. They go really fast, and they don't need very much water." Love you and praying for you!
