THE FORTH OF JULY !!!!!! I love this holiday! I am a very proud American and I truly love this country. My one regret that I have in life is that I did not serve in the military. I wish I could have, but God lead us into full time ministry and for a few health issues, there is no way they would have taken me anyways. For this whole week you see more flags than any other time of year. You see people’s pride in this country and you see people...

What a great time of year. Even though it has been raining a lot, the flowers are still blooming and the weather is warmer. Fall is still my favorite time of year, but the summer is pretty nice. Last week was Memorial Day and tomorrow is the remembrance of D-Day. I am blessed to be playing at a service tomorrow in Savanah Ga. and had the privilege to play some services on Memorial Day. I wish more people would take time during these two...

My update this month is very simple……Things here at CRM are going well. God continues to open new doors to new places and continues to fill up our calendar with a lot of concerts all over the world. We have some international things scheduled and working to schedule more. 2019 calendar is full and the next two years are filling up fast. Now, most people would measure the success of this ministry based off of what I have just said. “The more...

I just got back from a North Carolina tour. I had a great time, fun concerts and saw several people turn their lives to Christ. I do love what I do. Being able to travel all over the world playing my trumpet is one of the best jobs in the world, but……………….traveling all over the world playing my trumpet is not worth it AT ALL. March 30 was Kelli’s and my 23rd anniversary. In being married for 23 years, I have been home for 3 anniversaries. I...

My family has recently started to watch this show on TV call “Dr. Pimple Popper”. It is a reality show that follows the practice of a dermatologist and her weird and over the top cases. I guess you can say that one of the highlights of the show that my family enjoys is when the Doctor begins to squeeze these large cysts on people’s bodies. Some of them just look like the Doctor is popping a baseball size zit. It is pretty nasty, but for some...

Things here at Chiz Rider Ministries are going well. The calendar is filling up for our 2020 year and we are working on and practicing many new things for our concerts. The Rider family is good but we are definitely at a different stage in life right now. Kaitlin and Chase both have full time jobs and Chase’s schedule has him working mostly in the evenings. Ryan works part time and keeps up with his junior year of high school, while Brooke is...

2019 has kicked off very fast. We are booking concerts right now for 2020 and filling in just a few holes in this year’s calendar. Our holiday break seemed to go way to fast but we did enjoy the time home as a family and hanging with friends. I am very excited to see how God is going to use this ministry this year. We have several tours that will take us through most of the country, so check out our schedule, see where we are going to be and...

What a year 2018 has been! It was a year of great things and a year of challenges. I am very thankful for what God provided this year and we are thankful for the growth we have had and the hundreds and hundreds of people that accepted Christ as their Lord and Savior because of God using this ministry. We here at Chiz Rider Ministries want to thank all of you for praying for this ministry, coming to our concerts and for supporting us in many...
