Our Apologist in Chief?

Since when does the President of the United States have to add to his list of duties; Apologist in Chief? Since now. President Obama feels the need to travel all over Europe and elsewhere declaring that the United States has been "arrogant", "dismissive", and "derisive" of the Europeans. That the United States has "gone it alone" when it comes to Europe. He then chided the Europeans for having a casual and insidious anti-Americanism. It's as if he is so ashamed to be George Bushes successor that he feels the need to apologize and to grovel. Doesn't he realize it demeans ...<< MORE >>

Last Days Economy?

Last Days Economy? The bible talks about a time that is coming when every economic means of support will be cut off and people will have to live by faith. A time when there will be a one world economic system that will not allow yo to buy or sell unless you have a Mark; The Mark of the Beast. As we have watched the stock market plummet and housing values along with it, many have asked "Is this the beginning of the end of the world?"

All I can say is that if it isn't, it's a pretty good ...<< MORE >>

Happy ST Patricks Day! Ride Safe!

ST Patrick was a Bible Christian. He believed in the Second Coming, The Bible only, he kept Saturday as his Sabbath, and he was not a member of the Catholic Church. He was made a saint by them, but never served in the church. He was a protestant. However that being said, my Catholic family certainly claims him! He was such a wonderful, Godly man, that people admire him and want to be assosiated with him. He loved Jesus very much, and beginning his ministry at the age of 40 served God and converted Ireland in just 40 years! << MORE >>

The Bible is the Biker's Best Friend!

Biker's might not realize it, but the Bible is their best friend! Biker's are a
rare breed. They face death and destruction and a daily basis. Jesus said there
is a heaven and a hell. We all must face whatever lies beyond the grave. In the
Bible a Biker can find a manual for planning his road trip into eternity. What
road you take today can affect you're final destination. ...<< MORE >>

Bike Week Daytona 2009; Prayer Request

Thousands saw our Christian Motorcyclists Association Back patches and beheld the cross and the Bible with hands praying. They could see that not everyone was of the "live eat and be merry for tomorrow we die" crowd. Some of us have found that the roar of the motorcycle, and the laughter of friends who are in the clouds fades away, and in the still small moments of the night, there is a huge empty space that biker lifestyle just can't fill. There is a deep need for something only Jesus can provide<< MORE >>

Rush Limbaugh Clarifies Comments

Rush Limbaugh clarified his comments that he "Hopes Obama Fails". He stated that he didn't hope for the country to fail, of for the United States to fail economically to prove Obama wrong in his policies. He stated that he didn't like the direction President Obama was taking the country in, and hoped his policies failed to lead America into socialism or Marxism. He said he believed the country was going in the wrong direction, and that if Obama failed the country would win, by not following him into more government control over capitalistic institutions. To raise taxes, and take ...<< MORE >>

The Obama Economic Policies are Troubling

President Obama seemed to be governing from the Center until recent policy statements have caused me to be troubled by the direction we are heading in. Raising taxes in the middle of a severe economic downturn is bad enough, but to seriously consider dropping or severely curtailing the Mortgage Interest Deduction, and eliminating many deductions for Charitable Contributions causes me to be even more disturbed. This is sending the exact WRONG MESSAGE to the people who make this economy and country great. Small business's account for most of the jobs created in America. Many charitable organizations are struggling as it is in a tough economy and to threaten to take away their deduction at this time will deal many a fatal blow.

What happened to "Go slow" "be Cautious" "Govern from the Center"? Sadly Obama is proving his critics right by moving the country in a far left way very quickly. We will see in a year or so how this all plays out, but judging by the plunging stock market, SO FAR IS NOT SO GOOD!. If he continues down this path, I'm afraid he just may prove critics like Rush Limbaugh right, and we may be headed for "Jimmy Carter PART II " Economically. Jimmy was a wonderful person, but a failed president by any economic standard. President Obama would do well to learn the lessons of history, and not repeat Carter's mistakes. If he doesn't he is doomed to repeat them.

Daytona Beach Florida; Bike Week 2009

Daytona Bike Week 2009 got off to a chilly start! It has been COLD! I must have brought the cold with me from Ohio because it has been in the 30's and 40's so far. It was 7 degrees in Ohio, so I am counting my blessings! Already I have met many wonderful bikers, vender's and Christian Brothers and Sisters. People have welcomed my handouts and have been more receptive to the gospel this year. There was "Patches" with his huge "Dragon Slayer" Chopper, Veronica whom I met at Columbus Easy Rider show, Kelly and John who talked with me about Jesus for a half an hour, and posed in front of the "Worlds Largest Chopper" and Jan who lost her voice yelling over the motorcycles next to the Skeleton! Pictures to follow when I get back! So many bikers, needing the true peace and joy only Jesus can bring. Some have condemned me for going to these events because of the things that go on there. There is much to decry, but to me it's a wonderful fishing hole for men. Jesus told me to go there, and teach all men and women about his plan for their lives. So I go, and do a little to help. I watch my brothers in CMA do far more than I do to serve the bikers in need. I'm happy to support and publicize their great work on behalf o the biker community. Curse the Darkness or light a candle? Your choice!

Bible Biker Radio Ministry in the Works

We are in the midst of recording a radio program entitled THE BIBLE BIKER.   We have two of the broadcasts done and only 34 more to go! I'm going to Bike Week in Daytona, so I'm sure it will be a month or two, but whatever we have done we will put up on the Web Site BibleBiker.com for you to enjoy. When I get back from Bike Week I'll have pictures and stories to share. The first broadcast is a brief testimony of how I came to know Jesus Christ. The rest will be teaching the Bible Biker lessons that are already available. I will put each lesson with the corresponding show so you can listen, read or both. Please pray that God will lead me to just the people he wants me to talk too. Jesus said to go and tell them what great things God has done for you and how he has had compassion on you. He has truly had mercy on me, and I want every Biker to experience the joy and peace I have found over the last 40 years!

Easy Rider Bike Show in Columbus Ohio

Last Sunday The Christian Motorcyclists Association and the Bikers for Christ amont others conducted a Sunday worship service for the bikers and vendors at the Easy Rider Bike Show. My part was to play the guitar and lead the song service. We doubled our attendance from last year, and I really enjoyed the program. Everyone did a good job lifting up Jesus as the Savior of the world. It's not about us, it's about them, ie. the Bikers and others who need Christ.

There were lots of killer bikes that really blew your mind. Bikes of every make and description. The Vietnam Memorial Biker was impossible to take in without spending hours. It was designed as a tribute bike to Vietnam Vets. More stuff gets added every year. It has an AK47 mounted on it, hand grenades, Clamor mines, and too many things to mention. You can see pictures of it at www.BibleBiker.com.

We also had a CMA booth where we gave away free stuff like shop towels, literature and Candy. You can see a picture on the site of a grandma Biker with her cute little granddaughter. She liked our pamphlet for Kids. Cheryl and John were two veneers I met and talked with for a long time about Jesus. They were great. Then I met lot's of bikers, some of whom I had seen the week before at Bruce Dog Bite Hamilton's funeral. We had some great discussions, and everyone left with something that would help then on their Road to Christ. As I played guitar, blues, and Christian praise some of the guitar players stopped by, and we talked about Jesus as well. It was fantastic to see and meet so many interesting people. May God help all of them on their spiritual journey.

One thing I always enjoy is seeing Indian Larry's bikes, with all the twisted steel, inverted tanks and all his trademark, Old School genius. He is gone but not forgotten. He loved the question mark, because he was a seeker for truth. It is my prayer he found it, and is at peace with Jesus right now. To all the girls who work for Easy Rider, Say your prayers at nite, and behave!
