New Directions and Changed Lives!
H.I.M. is a group of motorcyclists whose faith and trust in God is now leading down a new road. You might say we got a new "road map." We will continue to change as Jesus Christ lives and reigns in our lives. The change we once resisted has now shown us just how much God cares for us. Our direction is sure!
Then and Now
Twelve years ago it started as a small group of Harley riders holding a Biker Sunday at Faith Church in Waterford. Then there were just a handful in attendance. Over the years it grew; it grew to over 700 bikes at the 2002 H.I.M. Biker Sunday. Since then there has been more each year and we expect 2008 to be no different!
Whosoever Will, Let Them Come
Those first riders were all on Harleys, but since then other bike owners have sought out Hogs In Ministry. They too wanted to ride with bikers that shared the same beliefs in God.
They spoke of their love for the Lord, their love of the ministry, and their love of riding in the wind on two wheels. Just as John 3:16 says,
"For God so loved the world that He gave his only Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." This verse shows us the heart of God and how He embraces all people of the world. This is the same heart felt attitude that the H.I.M. ministry follows. Now we are made up of all kinds of bikes and bikers.
Could This Be You?
Our past practices, old habits, vain ambitions and attitudes have fallen to the wayside. New ones are taking their place as Jesus transforms us into that new creature in Christ. We seek God always to conduct ourselves in a way that will honor our calling to Christ. The influence of God's Kingdom is never negative but very positive. Our desire is to help encourage and guide others into a "Changed" life. God has put it on our hearts to surrender our own lives and commit ourselves to the lives of others.
Come Ride With Us
We are a group of motorcyclists who love to get into the wind on two (and sometimes three) wheels, to attend motorcycle rallies and events, and be servants wherever possible. We have a love for our fellow bikers, but above all, we love the Lord our God. And we love to serve Him. If you are still seeking a group to ride with, or maybe you are questioning your relationship with God, please feel free to just come and ride with H.I.M.
