Forewords by Jimmie Johnson and Ryan Newman!
“The writer to Hebrews tells us that life is like a race and, like the Daytona 500, it’s a race of endurance as much as speed.”
-from Chapter One “We Don’t Just Show Up”
What started as southeastern regional entertainment has grown to become the second-most popular professional sport in America. NASCAR races are broadcast in over 150 countries to 75 million fans who purchase over $2 billion in annual licensed product sales.
In Before the Thunder Rolls, former Motor Racing Outreach chaplain Dale Beaver reaches for the hearts and souls of these fans. From his years with the Sprint Cup Series, he offers inspirational insights and anecdotes about individual racers and crew members, including Dale Jarrett, Ward Burton, Bobby Labonte, Ryan Newman, Jimmy Spencer, Bill Elliott, Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart, and others. Each makes profound and often witty connections between the behind-the-scenes details of stock-car racing and the Christian life.
Before the Thunder Rolls shares with racing fans:
*An insider’s look into each critical stage of the racing experience, from “It Starts in the Shop” to “Off the Truck,” from “How Did We Qualify?” to “Final Inspection,” finishing with *”Staying on Track off the Track”
*Scripture selections related to these pivotal moments in the racing experience
Spiritual tools for facing each day
In addition, the book concludes with the never-before-published eulogy preached at the funeral of one of racing’s legends!

Know Thyself : The Game Of Temperaments
$29.95Discover the secret building blocks of your personality with this fun and enlightening game that reveals players’ temperaments – the personal qualities that make them who they are!
We are all born with distinct personality traits. Some love going to parties, while others seek solitude. Some are naturally brash and assertive, while others are content to just get along.
We don’t pick and choose these character features; they’re just part of the way we’re made.
Ancient philosophers identified four basic temperaments that wise thinkers through the ages have used to understand human nature.
Now comes Know Thyself! The Game of Temperaments – the first game to help you identify, understand, and appreciate your own temperament, and those of your friends and family.
Take charge or follow the lead? Jump in feet first or analyze and contemplate? Introvert or extrovert? Focused or distractible?
All of these traits point to the temperament you were born with. Which one is yours, and how much of the others do you have?
