Ever wonder if you’re fit enough to do our National Ride? Or maybe you’re looking for a new training program heading into the summer. Here we outline the most important parts of training our riders endure through. How do you measure up to our training standards?
“PRAY vigorously for our missionaries. They will be told countless lies in the months leading up to the ride and countless more during it. We are told, ‘For the Spirt God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love, and self-discipline.’ (2 Timothy 1:7) The storm is ahead my friends, but, with your help, our missionaries will meet it with joy. And they will not listen to the whispers of the wind. They know, fear, he is a liar.” Kevin Biese
It’s been said wherever there is the greatest opportunity to do Good in the name of Jesus Christ, there is where the Enemy focuses his greatest opposition.These missionaries are the world changers, the ones who will energize the pro-life spirit in the world. How do we prepare them to withstand the challenges and trials that they will inevitably encounter? How do prepare our team for the ups and downs of the battle for souls?
So, in my last blog post before our applications close, I want to ask you one last time: will you join us in 2019? Discipline of using our God-given talents and graces is required; it is how we show God we love him and follow his commandments (Matthew 16:24). If your life lacks discipline for the glory of his Kingdom, I may know a few people willing to help.
I hope the March for Life fueled you for a fight to change the culture this year. Because legislation changes are necessary, and abortion clinics shutting down are gifts. But nothing will truly change if hearts aren’t changed.Help me, brothers and sisters, to change the heart of our world. Souls are at stake, including our own.

“Will you join me in following Him who calls us to action, who calls us to pick up our cross (or bike!)? Will you be like Peter and be a witness? Because make no mistake, you have been called, and He is waiting for a response.” Kevin’s reflection on SEEK19 leads into a universal call: not from Biking for Babies, but from Jesus Christ.
“God is calling you to prepare your heart for the day when you meet Him face to face. What will He be able to say about your preparation? Will you be like the “good and faithful servant” who has used their talents wisely, or will you hide your talents away, allowing the world to continue on its current trajectory (Matthew 25-30)? The choice is yours…”
“It was the first time in my life where my body could not do what I was asking it to do…I pray that you find a way to break free from the comforts this world offers and walk the path Christ invites us to walk. I will say this: if your cross lies with Biking for Babies, I know some very joy-filled people that will help you carry it.” Kevin’s reflection on his first year with B4B and Luke 9:23.
In this first period of formation, the young adults:
With eyes now opened to the need and Christ-centered solutions of problems, these young adults are sent forth as “missionaries” into the rest of the formation program and into the rest of their lives, committing to live with the truth of the Gospel of life as the lens through which they see every relationship, every decision, and the world at large.
