About Christian Author K.R. Mele

K.R. Mele’s story extends well beyond the pages of his books. Before moving to Iowa with his wife, Gina, in 2021, K.R. served in ministry in Pennsylvania, including nearly 18 years leading a church they helped establish. He is an ordained minister, speaker and Certified Personal Trainer whose experiences have connected physical endurance, Christian faith and service in some unusual ways.

One of those experiences was a coast-to-coast bicycle ride that ultimately helped inspire Rock-n-Roll Ministries. Other cycling journeys have included Route 66 from Chicago to Santa Monica and a ride across Pennsylvania. Those experiences provide the backdrop for several of K.R.’s books and his ongoing message about perseverance, purpose and living out your faith in everyday life.
