About The Author

David “PK” VanderKlay was born in a preacher’s home. He grew up religious, but at 31 years old came into a personal relationship with Jesus as his Savior and Lord. This relationship changed his life. In addition to being a retired Police Officer, PK is presently and Ordained Minister of the Gospel through EPIC Ministries Inc., Fulshear, TX. He is an active member of the Christian Motorcyclists Association and has spent time in various leadership capacities within that organization as well. PK has served as an Elder in his church, a President of a Christian School Board. PK has be writing a weekly devotional since 1997 and has led several neighborhood and church Bible studies from 1976 until the present.

The book, Called to Ride, tells the personal history and testimony of David “PK” VanderKlay, a man who is truly a storyteller at heart. PK has a remarkable ability to recall people, places, and moments from his past with vivid detail and clarity. Just as Jesus used parables to illuminate truth, PK uses storytelling to offer hope and encouragement, weaving together moments that reveal God’s steady and faithful guidance in his life and in the lives of those he has touched.

The Call to Ride was written as an encouragement to all who desire to follow Christ in the everyday moments of life, with all its twists and turns. These pages are filled with stories of a loving God who works through ordinary people, despite their shortcomings and uncertainties, when they are willing to walk in obedience. PK sought this adventure with God, and as you read about his journey, you will see how God moves even when we don’t understand, even when we are unsure what to do next, and especially when our best doesn’t feel like enough.

PK’s life shows that while our best may fall short, the Holy Spirit working through us never does. PK is someone I can relate to, and I believe his story will resonate with you as well. God is giving each of us The Call to Ride. May we have the courage to say yes. For anyone seeking inspiration in their walk with Jesus, The Call to Ride is a story that will resonate deeply within the heart.
