I’m excited for my third agony ride in the valley and my fourth overall. Over the past seven years of being involved with the ranch, the Agony ride is one of my favorite events that I look forward to year after year. Seeing the body of Christ come together in the form of riders, saggers, transporters, and rovers all at the ride and then sponsors and prayer warriors as well from all of the world makes this event truly special and a visualization for the students of unconditional love and just how important and special they really are. Thanks for the sponsorship and encouragement to continue on when the going gets tough. Austin

love you
Austin!!! It's so awesome to see how you've poured your life into the ministry of the ranch. You are living out the will of God in your life and it is so encouraging to see. You've never been one to back down from a difficult challenge so it's no surprise to see that you are committing to your third Agony Ride and going for 315 miles! One thing that I always admired about you is your commitment to a mission that you believe in. Taking part in the Agony ride for a third time is a testament to that commitment and your willingness to push through difficult situations. We'll be praying for you during your ride! Love you brother. Jack, Ashley, and Henry

I’m reflecting this morning on how I have agony to thank for all my biggest gifts. I’m so thankful I sagged for your virtual ride, when we got to know each other better and eventually leading to the gift of getting to be your wife and start a family with you. And of course, the ultimate gift of salvation brought about by Jesus’ agony on the cross. Thank you for doing hard things that paint a picture of God to me and bring about many gifts and joys in our life.
I am SO insanely proud of you bud!!! You’re doing amazing things!! Not just to accomplish a huge physical goal but to do it all for the Ranch and ultimately that more people can know, choose, and love Jesus. What an incredible gift you are to so many! Love you bro!
Beneath The Clothes, We Find A Man, And Beneath The Man We Find His... Nucleus -Nacho Libre You got this big Aus 💪
Austin, you're doing amazing!! Keep going strong. Your efforts are never in vain, and God has the strength you need for every mile, every pedal stroke. Phil 3:14 - "I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus." Keep your eyes on the prize!
You’re doing great, keep it up! We are praying that God will give you strength for the rest of the ride.
Praying for you, Austin! Your dedication and strength is inspiring. Watching from Missouri this evening.
Go Austin!! You've got this!!!
Getting close to that first spin! Keep going!
you got this... every mile you go changes a students life. sending love. Jeremiah 29:11
Hi Austin! Just don’t know what part of the ride you’ll get this but stay strong and keep a good pace you’ll do well! I know you will ponder the Word of God. May He bring light to your thoughts. Dan
Way to go Josie’s Papa😇😇🤎🤎
This app may have missed your first check in at vinton (I saw you fly by long ago), but God watches over all your going out and coming ins and will not slumber but always watch over you! Praying this psalm for you “I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth. He will not let your foot be moved; he who keeps you will not slumber. Behold, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord is your keeper; the Lord is your shade on your right hand. The sun shall not strike you by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord will keep you from all evil; he will keep your life. The Lord will keep your going out and your coming in from this time forth and forevermore.” Psalm 121:1-8 ESV
We love you! Thank you for all the ways you love and serve us every day. You inspire me to want to love God and His people more and lead our family closer to Him. It’s amazing how fast you are even with all the training rides you missed to help me with the baby and give me some extra sleep and wash the dishes :) Go daddy go!
Good luck Austin!! Your commitment and strength are commendable. Ride like the wind! 😊
YOU CAN DO HARD THINGS!! WE LOVE YOU SOOO MUCH!!
Every year that you do this ride you get stronger and your giving spirit shines through! We always learn so much from you and your determination!! Keep it up!
We believe in you! Keep praying through your journey! We will be too!
“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” Phil 4:13
