An abiding expression of deepest faith, and also a respectful tribute to the many people who make NASCAR possible. March 3, 2008
The true-life testimony of former Motor Racing Outreach chaplain Dale Beaver, Before the Thunder Rolls: Devotions for NASCAR Fans is part retrospective memoir, part devotional. Beaver offers spiritual insights, as well as enthralling true anecdotes about individual races and crew members including Dale Jarrett, Ward Burton, Tony Stewart, Ryan Newman, Jimmy Spencer and more. "The electricity in the race day air is more than addictive - it is downright hypnotic! Typically I rise early on those mornings to gather a group of television production workers for a predawn devotion and prayer service... For a few moments we recognize God's presence with us, pray for each other, and read a portion of Holy Scripture." 'Pit Notes' at the close of each chapter ask the reader hard questions and offer ways in which to open one's soul more fully to God. An abiding expression of deepest faith, and also a respectful tribute to the many people who make NASCAR possible.
Jesus Insights With The NASCAR Life November 27, 2007
Pastor Dale Beaver has done an excellent job of revealing the insights of Jesus, with a fans point of view, in every day life applications as related to NASCAR and the many personalities involved in it.
The Bible references are a great help and provide great understanding and meaning to God's Word. I am sorry that it is limited to twenty-five short chapters (days). I am sure he has some great stories to relate to with his sermons.
God's Word in the High Groove November 25, 2007
Dale Beaver is an incredibly gifted storyteller. He has a special "down home" way of tying real life to the nuts and bolts of God's message and will for us. "Before the Thunder Rolls" uses NASCAR racing as a metaphor to explain biblical teaching like no other book. It's an eye-opener for anyone in racing -- from the stars in the driver's seats, to the teams in race shops and the loyal fans in the stands who hear "that" thunder streaking by at 200 miles per hour. A must read for anyone seeking real power.
