Just Do It: a reflection on the 2019 National Ride
“The National Ride was the single hardest thing I’ve done in my life. And as a first year missionary, I will say I had no clue what I was getting myself into. I just knew I had to do it.”
Where Do We Go From Here?
Check out the latest blog reflection from one of our founders, Jimmy! “In this battle, LOVE will triumphantly transform each and every one of us. Love, which requires vulnerability and sacrifice, will inevitably require us to take hits and get our hands dirty…The battle is and will continue to be challenging, but the battle is not without hope, because God is with us and gives us every reason for our hope. Together, let us fight from beginning to end and, by God’s grace, advance from death to life.”
We Are Not Alone
Through the many circumstances of my years in those maternity homes, I was given the privilege of being continually drawn out of my comfort zone, experienced incomprehensible joy, was brought to deep sadness, felt sheer exhaustion, and found the deepest sense of God’s faithfulness and redemption.
Do Not Be Greedy, Share the Mission
“But we cannot be greedy with our newly founded understanding of what it means to be pro-life. We may not be greedy with the joys of the Gospel. We are called to be lights in the world, beacons of hope bringing the truth to the world.”
Four Kids and a Shopping Cart
As you are approaching the door, a middle-aged woman comes out…looks at you…looks at the miniaturized bus known as a shopping cart…looks at you again and says, “Boy, you have your hands full!” To live the Christian and pro-life more deeply, we have to change our language and our reaction to families. So, the next time you see a mom or dad herding their kids through the store and trying to grab something on the top shelf: DON’T stare out of the corner of your eye, DON’T turn up the music in your headphones and ignore it, and DON’T walk away. Instead, go and encounter and become a part of that family for all of 30 seconds.

The Story of a Girl and a Boy

The Power of the People
“There is no power in the world that can stop the forward march of free men and women when they are joined in the solidarity of human brotherhood” -Walter Reuther. This quote not only describes the pregnancy resource centers (PRCs) I was paired with, but also the common theme of the entire pro-life movement.
Seasons of Life
We have a lot of work to do to renew a culture of life, and accepting that vision in our everyday lives is essential to changing the world. Just as Jesus called these 72 to be missionaries, God calls each of us, in our own seasons of life, to go on mission for Him. That is, to live each day in search of an opportunity to help someone and make their day better, all for the glory of God.
