About
For T.J., there's no way he will let his chief rival get the better of him, especially when it comes to BMX racing. Then one day, T.J. meets the Lord and is later challenged by the Scripture, "As you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk with Him." With the help of his older cousin, T.J. learns that the Christian life is not just a "one-moment decision," but an ongoing commitment. The lesson isn't easy and it's not until the grueling, action-packed BMX enduro that T.J. finally understands the true cost of being a Christian. . . and the true joy.
