The command of God
implores us as we “go into all the world we are to preach the Gospel
to all creation” (Mark 16:15); the F.A.I.T.H.
Riders take this calling seriously as the lifeblood of its
existence and passion.
Through the ministry of F.A.I.T.H. Riders,
motorcyclists, their families and others are learning about Jesus
Christ and receiving His awesome gift of salvation and eternal life
in Heaven with Him. F.A.I.T.H. Riders are
reaching people with their bikes who may not normally step foot into
an organized church or attend Bible study. It’s putting rubber, as
well as shoe leather, into the Gospel message.
F.A.I.T.H. Riders Motorcycle Ministry is
based on 2 Peter 3:9: “The Lord is not slow about his promise as
some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing to
anyone to perish, but for all to come to repentance.”
This ministry, which is based on the F.A.I.T.H.
evangelism strategy, began in 2001 at First Baptist Lakeland,
Lakeland, Florida. It has expanded to over a sixteen chapters
throughout the United States. F.A.I.T.H.
Riders is fully supported by the SBC as it is our official
motorcycle ministry. The Alabama State Board of Missions, Department
of Evangelism and Madison Baptist Association fully support this
ministry. There are currently two F.A.I.T.H.
Riders Motorcycle ministry chapters in Alabama. One chapter is in
Anniston and the second chapter was recently commissioned in Dothan,
and now the third chapter at Mt. Zion Baptist Church.
The F.A.I.T.H. Riders Chapter is an
evangelism and mission’s ministry of Mt. Zion Baptist Church. All
Chapter ministry activities are for evangelism, outreach, missions,
and equipping members to tell others about the “Good News” of Jesus
Christ.
