 Matthew 12:30 He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters abroad. 
Happy New Year from Lonesome Road Ministries!Matthew 27:11–30 makes one truth unmistakably clear: when it comes to Jesus Christ, there is no neutral ground. You are either for Him, or you are against Him. In this passage, Jesus stands innocent before Pilate. Pilate knew the truth, yet he refused to act on it. The crowd was given a choice—Jesus or Barabbas—and they chose the guilty man. Others mocked, beat, and humiliated Jesus. Some acted out of hatred, others out of fear, and many through silence. But every response led to the same result: rejection of Christ. This passage speaks directly to our world today. Many people believe that staying neutral about Jesus is enough. But Matthew 27 shows us that silence and indecision still place us on the wrong side of eternity. Knowing the truth but refusing to follow it is not faith—it is rejection. Jesus endured the crown of thorns, the mocking, the spitting, and the beatings for one reason: love. He was not forced to the cross; He chose it. He took the punishment we deserved so that we could receive forgiveness we do not deserve. While the world stood against Him, He stood for us. The question this passage asks is personal and urgent: What will you do with this man called Jesus? Not tomorrow. Not someday. Right now. If you are not standing with Him, you are standing against Him - Whether by choice, compromise, or delay. Today is the day to choose Jesus. Choose the One who remained silent so you could be forgiven. Choose the Savior who was rejected so you could be accepted. Choose life, salvation, and truth If you have never trusted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, call on Him today. Turn from sin, believe in His sacrifice, and confess Him boldly. He is still offering grace to all who will choose Him. This Scripture is a call to each and everyone of us!

    Merry Christmas From Lonesome Road Ministries!  As we enter this Christmas season, our hearts are full of gratitude for each driver, pastor, partner, and friend who makes this ministry possible. Christmas reminds us of one simple truth—It’s all about Jesus. Not the lights, not the gifts, not even the traditions… It’s about the Savior who came down into our world and still knocks on the doors of hearts today. Revelation 3:20 is more than a verse—it is an invitation. Jesus is knocking on the door of America, on the door of our homes, and on the door of the cab of every driver out on the long, lonesome road. He is calling each of us to open the door wide and let Him come in and do what only He can do: save, heal, restore, and transform. Testimony Spotlight: Chaplain Beto Hernandez – Truckstop Ministries Inc. This month we want to shine the spotlight on a powerful man of God and a faithful partner in the harvest—Chaplain Beto Hernandez of Truckstop Ministries in Ontario, California. Chaplain Beto knows firsthand what it means to hear Jesus knocking. Years ago, he was a man searching for purpose, trying to fill the emptiness inside. But one day He opened his heart, and Jesus walked in and changed everything. Today, Chaplain Beto serves hundreds of drivers every month at the Ontario TA/Petro. He prays with them, listens to their struggles, and shares the hope that transformed his own life. Drivers who walk in burdened leave encouraged. Men who walk in broken leave restored. And every time someone walks through those chapel doors, Beto reminds them: “Jesus is here. He’s been waiting for you.” Lonesome Road Ministries is honored to lock arms with ministries like Truckstop Ministries and leaders like Chaplain Beto Hernandez. Together, we are taking the Gospel to the highways, byways, rest areas, truck stops, and every mile in between. Looking Toward 2026 With Expectation!!! As 2025 draws to a close, our hearts are excited for what God is preparing for 2026. We believe doors will open we never expected, souls will be saved we’ve been praying for, and new partnerships will strengthen the net we are casting across this nation. We’re especially excited about our upcoming 3-Fold Cord Conference June 25–28, 2026, and thrilled to announce that Tim Ridley of Sirius/XM Radio will be joining us and broadcasting live this Friday morning show from Lonesome Road Ministries. God is already moving! Thank you for praying, supporting, and walking this road with us. We are believing for revival in the trucking community, revival in our churches, and revival in our nation.

Gary RayburnI logged over 4 million miles as a truck driver from 1972 - 2007 and I have written a lot of it in my songs. God has taken me off the road and put me into full time ministry, but I still have a heart for all you drivers out there. Archives
