“For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.” - Ephesians 3:10
“I pray that from his glorious unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your heart as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all Gods people should, how wide, how long, how high and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.” - Ephesians 3:16-19
You got 300 for sure! You can do it!
Ted Anderson: nope. not unless you reveal yourself

scratch, cluck, cluck, oooaaahhhaaarrroooo................(translated: miss you nice lady)
This morning, I meditated on God's mighty works & thought about how so many start with a small thing - a spoken word at the right time- or in your case, one pedal stroke followed by another. Each pedal stroke tells not only the current students at CER, but the interns, staff & future students about Christ's love for them. Not just in the money raised, but the fact that there are 100+ riders, most of whom they don't even know, out there riding through wind, heat & darkness for 24 hours for them to be able to come to the ranch, meet Christ & turn their lives around through Him. That is the love of Christ working in the world. Thank you!

Two more lengths and you’ve hit your goal! Woohoo! Praying for God’s strength as you pedal toward the finish 3.5 more hours! 👏🏻
Keep up the great work! We're rooting for you both. :)
Yahoo ! You are doing GREAT Dave. May the Lord give you strength to finish well.
Wow! You are doing great Jeremiah!! May the Lord give you strength to finish strong.
2 more legs until you hit 300!!!!!
Congratulations on reaching your goal of 260 miles!!!!
So, you think you can get 300? Let’s see…. The brakes on the bike go squeak squeak squeak…
well, you got this far, go for it!
Proud of you!! You are crushing it!
Pastor Matt you are doing awesome! We are praying right now for Gods strength and renewal and a mind that is clearly focused on how young people will be saved and joining us in eternity because of the gospel! God bless you Pastor!
While the world was sleeping, you were out crushing goals and being amazing! Way to go, Mack! <3
You are so close!! You’ve got this!!
Lots of love. Praying for you. Keep it up. I will even drive you home😊🩷
In the last 20 hours, you have ridden more miles than I have in the previous 3 years combined! Great work! And remember: the cramps aren't real.
Austin Elliott: And now I'm depressed.
You’re doing great!! You have passed last years mark! Keep going and I am cheering you on.
You are doing awesome mom!! Keep going!!!
tbh, I don't really know what to say to a guy who's ridden 260+ miles, but you're doing AMAZING and you have raised so much money! Don't stop now! (You've officially completed the distance between my place in IN and my home in MI, which is insane to me lol)
Austin Elliott: This sent me down a rabbit hole and two fun facts: 1) The height of Colorado is only 280 miles long 2) During the Agony Ride this year, for the first time the total distance biked between all the riders was greater than the circumference of the earth.
"Do you know why we fall? So we can get back up again" Great work. Scapes and bruises should heal up...eventually.
Ted Anderson: is this a 3x5 card from Grandpa?
KINGS AND QUEENS AND guillotines. Had to get siri to spell that.
Hope you are enjoying this cool weather! You KNOW I am. Wish I could be there for the finish . Love you. 🙏
Paul- You’re killing it! Keep up the great work!

Josh, you're killing it man! 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!
Joel - you might not remember me, but I rode a lot of the last leg of Agony 2023 with you. I was lagging bad at that point, but riding with you was a huge motivation to get me to the finish line. Thanks so much for riding again this year and for what you're contributing to the Ranch. Keep going strong!
Let's do this! You're doing awesome! Push through and hit your goal!
Nate, you're doing amazing! Keep going strong. Your efforts are never in vain; every pedal stroke is hugely impactful. 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!

Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.” Romans 5:2-5 ESV We thank God for you! Praying that God will sustain you through the hardest moments.

Thank you Wade for Riding for the kids. You ride for souls to be changed. I remember the first time I experienced an agony ride I was a student. I was scared. I was uncovering so much about my life, and I was surrounded by strangers I hadn’t fully come to know yet. Yet I watched them ride their bikes for hours. When the ride began I was considering the riders. By the middle of the night I loved them. Seeing them fall off their bikes. Seeing them cry and show a deep love. Back then I didn’t fully grasp the love of Jesus. But the Agony ride was a pivotal point that showed me the love of Jesus. You get to see behind the scenes the impact the Agony had on my life. As you ride know there are new faces wondering about Hod’s love for them. Your riding shows them. Proud of you bro!
I drove from IN to NY yesterday and my butt was really sore. If I can do it, you can do it. Also, if you don't hit your goal, UK sucks.
Ted Anderson: WI sucks

LETS GOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! Crush it!!!!!! 301, 301, 301!!!!!!!!!!
This morning, I meditated on God's mighty works & thought about how so many start with a small thing - a spoken word at the right time- or in your case, one pedal stroke followed by another. Each pedal stroke tells not only the current students at CER, but the interns, staff & future students about Christ's love for them. Not just in the money raised, but the fact that there are 100+ riders, most of whom they don't even know, out there riding through wind, heat & darkness for 24 hours for them to be able to come to the ranch, meet Christ & turn their lives around through Him. That is the love of Christ working in the world. Thank you!

Good job cuz! The thought of you out there riding all night makes me happy 😊
Okkkkkkkkkkkkk…let’s gooo.
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.
4 hours left till you get a milkshake!
Agony is an extraordinary thing and anyone who rides is a champion, and maybe also a little crazy but KEEP GOIN!! The ranch truly helped me grow and Im thankful for everyone riding because YOU GUYS are helping fuel other souls with each and every mile you take on. Stay strong in the Lord! “Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.” Psalm 30:5

Keep grinding brother! Proud of you!! Get home safe because it looks like your Pops needs help mowing the back hill 😂
Good morning, Zack! Your dot hasn’t moved since i looked at it last night so I’m guessing you decided to sleep and come out strong again this morning. If that’s the case, you’ve still got some miles to go but you’ve got this in you. I’ve always been impressed with what you can do when you’re determined. I pray you hear/see/feel God’s leading you back to your relationship with Him so you can harness all that good stuff in you for His eternal purposes. I love you
We love you. Keep cranking foe the kiddos. Be safe! Praise the Lord for you!
The first thing i did when i woke up this morning was to check your dot. You are totally crushing it! I admire your determination, Maddie. You are remarkable! I pray you always let the Holy Spirit direct you because the impact you can make for God’s kingdom is limitless. I love you!
Way to go Jerry ! Don’t over do it! 😉

What an adventure. God bless

Reengage that 20 year old inside of you who climbed Big Bear with a BEE STING 😜 You know that I love you persistence most of all, and now is the time to PERSIST.

So, are you having a restful day not chasing toddlers?
Austin Elliott: 🤣
I like the approach-let them think they are way ahead then pass them in the night. Old age and cunning winning over youth and vigor. You got this!

hey son, extremely proud of you. You'll do the best that you can do. oh by the way, when you get home, the back hill needs to be mowed. I'll wait for you.💗💗
2 laps down! You’re killin it! Proud of you!! Love you- praying this for you “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us,” Hebrews 12:1
I drove from IN to NY yesterday and my butt was really sore. If I can do it, you can do it!
Hey Jensen! Just thought I would pop in and try to make you laugh... You know all those times you had to sit down and chat with me?? welp you would be surprised. I learned something, but one thing I refuse to learn is the fact that I changed myself when I was there but in reality it wasn't truly the authentic genuine me. You changed my life and I want you to know that. You did the hard thing in the moment, but at the end of 1 year later, I learned why even when I swore up and down I wouldn't learn anything. BTW I bet you didn't laugh but I sure hope I made you smile. Sending love!
“Osu!”
Hey Nate! This is so cool to see you riding for all of the students there! You changed my life but you are changing a life every mile you ride. Keep up the good work!
Take a lap for me! I’m watching your progress and will be there tomorrow morning to see you! You’ve got this.
Good job Dad! Keep it up!
So happy you are riding this year! We have had many Agony rides together. So many lives touched and such a demonstration of the Love of Christ to these kids. Every Mile Counts!!
Hey Dave! Time to push on. Time to show the love you have for all the students now and to become students soon. May Go's give you strength
May the Lord strength your muscles and give you strength 💪
Praying for you!

You are doing great!!!! Keep going!
Goooooo Ted GO!!! You’re doing incredible! If you’re feeling worn out…just remember things could always be worse! You could be hugging me 😂😬.
Ted Anderson: no
Keep it up MacK.......cheering you on from Spokane Valley! You are one sports chick rockstar!
7th agony! Wahoo!! 25+ miles now, keep up the good work!
NIV1984 Hebrews 12:1 God Disciplines His Sons Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.

Ted Anderson: k
God bless these bikes and all who travel upon them, May their gears be smooth, their brakes be strong, Their tires puncture proof and blessed with a seat of comfort,
You got this babe!!!!!! I'm so proud of you! We love you
I am praying for strength, health, and metal perseverance for you, Jensen. Love growing old with you 😉 Cera
Hey Lil' Bro! :-) Thank you for riding the Agony with Jim again! You are an amazing blessing to us and to all who know you! AND, you are a wonderful man of God! :) I'll be praying for you (and that foot). God Bless you throughout the ride! I love you tons! :)
Fat bottomed girls, they'll be riding today So look out for those beauties, oh yeah On your marks, get set, go Bicycle race, bicycle race, bicycle race!
You got this! I hope that you make wonderful memories and that your body feels good as you pedal!
you are going to kill this thing. enjoy it!!!
Soupsnake, you are SUCH a serious Rockstar! I respect and admire the steadfast and determined heart you have for the things that praise God! You are NOT afraid of of hard things and you press in, where many would fall apart... you let God be your strength and He shines so bright through you...it's so beautiful to see!!!! You are such an inspiration to me and I love you and thank God only daily, that you are a part of our life and family! I am praying even now ahead of your ride starting, that God would prepare the way...that you would encounter Him in new ways and feel His presence carrying you through whatever miles you overcome for this amazing cause! Thank you for being such a beautiful example of God's faithfulness and showing up for these kids even when it's the perfectly worst timing in the crazy full of life! I really believe it's the times it's hardest to show up and an excuse would be understandable, that God moves all the more mightily through our obedience and trusting Him! May you be wrecked by God's GOODNESS as you give yourself and your physical comfort up for these kids! May they feel God's love through you guys as you ride, in a way they can't understand apart from being greater than the riders and KNOW is all God!!! You got this Soupsnake, because God's got YOU!!! Through each and every mile and moment of pressing on!!!
LETS GET THIS BREAD!!!!!
GO MACKIE GO!! All your training has prepared you for this, so make it all pay off! So proud of you for committing to this. Very impressive. And above all else - enjoy and have fun!!!
GO LARRY GO!!! I'm praying for safety and distance! Give Paul a run for his money too. 8^)

Just a few more miles and you've reached your goal!!!! Each mile is a new record for you either way! Way too go !

You’re so close!! Keep pushing through the pain! You got this!!! One foot in front of the other…. Or is that one foot around the other?? Just don’t crash again! You’re almost to 300!!! Wha?!!!
Ted Anderson: one foot around the other. I didn’t crash again. lucky me
Wow Austin past 300. You are doing awesome. Praise the Lord for your effort and sacrifice. Only 2 more hours. Kill it!!!!!!!
Becky, I take my hat off to you! Thanks for being willing to give so much of yourself to others! Praying for strength in this last hour.
Awesome job Isaac. I’m sure your exhausted but power through to the end. To give you a little encouragement , Jane and I will donate $.50 per mile. Proud of your efforts.
Go mom!! Praying for you this morning! Almost there! You are amazing, hope you’re feeling good now that the sun is up!
Way to go Doug!
Bree, it has been an honor to Sagg for you this year! As you travel from Beckwourth to Loyalton I pray that the Lord would poor out His love on you, and give you the perseverance to keep pressing on. You are a delight to be around. Thank you for doing this for the students!
We are so proud of you Daddy!!!!!!! We love you! You're the best! ♥️🍇☺️🍓💙💙😁😁 Just keep swimming! Just keep swimming!!

Ted Anderson: haha I actually have these thoughts about people i know in time zones.
BOOM! 300! Way to Go!
Way to go! I’m so grateful for your beautiful heart. I’m praying for your mental and physical strength and endurance. Love you.
Well I guess I have to do an unknown lump sum….. $2.50 sounds about right. Congratulations on making it to the 300 club. A club I will never be apart of
Austin Elliott: Get some deeper couch cushions. Also, never say never.
Bro! Look at you getting this miles! Woot!
Omg! How many miles are you at? That’s crazy! Did you know you could go that far? Keep it up!
Get it girl! We are so proud of you. The boys want to go on a ride with you soon! Maybe 24 minutes instead of 24 hours!
You’re so close to your goal!! You’re amazing!!
Pour it on, Raven!!
Go Jonathan! We are praying for strength as you finish strong.
You are off and away! Keep the horizon in sight, but don't dwell on it. You are on a ride of your life in God's hands. BREATHE!😊

Just one more check to hit 300! Don't quit!
Home s-t-r-e-t-c-h, brother.
3.5 hours to go! Keep up the good work. Praying for God’s strength as you pedal toward the finish.
Ted Anderson: thank you!
This morning, I meditated on God's mighty works & thought about how so many start with a small thing - a spoken word at the right time- or in your case, one pedal stroke followed by another. Each pedal stroke tells not only the current students at CER, but the interns, staff & future students about Christ's love for them. Not just in the money raised, but the fact that there are 100+ riders, most of whom they don't even know, out there riding through wind, heat & darkness for 24 hours for them to be able to come to the ranch, meet Christ & turn their lives around through Him. That is the love of Christ working in the world. Thank you!
Keep up the great work! We're rooting for you both. :)
Looking good mom we are proud of you
Way to go Becky!! We are praying and rooting for you.
Sup broski. Hope you having some fun in the sun! We had our baby!!! Little miss Tabitha Grace. I'll have to send you a polo. She was born super early at 30 weeks and she's still in the NICU here in Evansville for the past 7 weeks. Been a crazy stressful few months. But God is good and I been thinking about ya. Hope the family is doing well. Lots of love brudda!
Wow you are doing great Keep up the good job.
Only 120 more miles to get to 300!!! The brakes on the bike go squeak squeak squeak…
Girl you are crushing it! Keep going - so close to your goal!
You've got this! 350 easy!
Keep at it.
76 miles and counting! You're going to make it! Whohoo! May God infuse you with renewed strength and determination.. Stay focused and look forward to victory. Love you.
Impressive! Proud of you!
Ted Anderson: thank you!
Way to go! Home stretch! Praying for strength and peaceful rest at the end 🙏
You've traveled the distance into Oregon! 4 hours left

Love you
Amazing progress. So proud of you!
Way to represent the older generation. Great job and the worst part is behind you.

Austin Elliott: 🦇
Getting close to your goal! Don't forget to pee occasionally.
Austin Elliott: Remind me to tell you my pee stories sometime.
After looking at your total so far, makes me think that maybe I ought to at least get out of bed and go feed the chickens!
Austin Elliott: Chickens need food too sleepyhead.
Keep going. You are doing an amazing job. We love you!

Good job buddy! Just a few more laps to go! 😎👍🏻
Jacob….you’ve got this! You are doing awesome!
Sorry to hear about your crash. I guess that is why this is called the Agony Ride and not Tiptoe Through the Tulips Ride! If it were easy, everyone would do it but you, because you love a challenge. Keep pushing and stay strong. You have a huge team cheering you on every mile.
Ted Anderson: Santa clause
Way to go Gary! You are doing incredible! Keep it up!
Jensen, you're doing amazing! Keep up the great work! You've already made a huge impact for the Ranch, and every mile is building that impact. 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!
Wait?! You crashed?? I’m sitting in a hotel room with sleeping kiddos, so I can’t look at Marco Polo. But what??!! You’re a beast!!! Be careful! I’m praying!!! The sun is up here, it’s coming your way. (Don’t tell anyone, but you’re amazing!) oh yeah, and don’t embarrass us.
Ted Anderson: screenshot and sharing
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 are doing amazing!!! Show these young punks how it’s done! You got this!
One 12 mile leg at a time now. You got this!
The wheels on the bike go round and round….
200 is definitely within reach!
The darkest hour is often just before dawn-hang in there and keep going!
Ted Anderson: that’s actually my fav part. cold and no wind.
You’re ahead of your last years pace. You’re doing great. Keep pushing. Blessings

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
I love you and am praying for you.
