I spent the first two decades of my Christian life afraid of disappointing God. I was trying to be a good servant and live a good life so God would be happy with me. During my own journey as a World Racer, God revealed how deeply He loves me, and that His desire is to actually partner with me in this life.
This changed everything for me!
I've spent the last nine years partnering with God through the World Race, to help others awaken to how much their Father loves them and the great adventure of living and loving like Jesus. I can't wait to see what God has in store for you on your World Race journey.

Hey! My name is Jeremy! I am married to my high school sweetheart - her name is Kat, and she's the best human I know. We did the World Race together as a married couple in 2011. As we continue to say "yes" to God, He continues to blow our minds with the places we're going spiritually, relationally, emotionally and geographically!

Read Bio
Keith and Karen Christianson have been married 28 years, and have two sons: Trevor (24) and Casey (21). They live about 70 miles west of Chicago in Rockford, Illinois. Keith continues to lead a small graphic design business, which he helped start 20 years ago. Karen works part-time as a tutor for high school students and serves as a CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) for abused and neglected children. Since 2008, Keith and Karen have been leading short-term mission trips to the Dominican Republic, where their teams of high school and college students build homes and minister to the children in some of the poorest communities surrounding Santo Domingo. Keith and Karen believe their role as World Race coaches is the next step in a journey in which God has been teaching them to love more freely, depend on Him more fully, and work to further His kingdom.
