Being a leader is an adventure. It opens us up to criticism but also gives us opportunities to serve others. John reminds us of the importance of creating more options in our lives and tells us how to do that. He shares the role of divine intervention and vulnerability in his own life.

The Ride of Our Lives is a true story of John Gronski’s bicycle ride across the United States with his wife, Berti, and fifteen-month-old son, Stephen. In the 3-month adventure the Gronski family experience trials, triumphs, and learning lessons. They discovered incredible people from Tacoma Washington to Scranton Pennsylvania. They faced wind, rain, traffic, and an angry bull.  They never gave up. The book is a powerful reminder that neither should you.
