“Being culturally relevant is accomplished in Rick Lemons' book, The Race: From Pit Row to Victory Lane. Being truthful is also achieved as he launches from the imagery of NASCAR racing, leading you straight into an encounter with God and His Word. If you want to grow, be challenged, or grow to a deeper level with God, this book can help you get there. Join Rick Lemons in sharing this message across the world. You will not regret and future readers will be enriched greatly.”
Dr. Ronnie W. Floyd
Senior Pastor
First Baptist Church of Springdale and The Church at Pinnacle Hills, Arkansas
“In The Race, Lemons offers a high powered message to all of us striving to "crank up" our faith. It'll rev you up!”

“In a plain and honest language, Rick Lemons draws an incredible parallel between the Christian life and the fastest growing sport in America. Rick does not “dumb-down” the tough and complex life and responsibilities of a Christian. Rather, he puts a modern perspective on the rich and doctrinally accurate trials and victories of today’s Christian. This is a rewarding and enjoyable book that can speak to generations of believers and those seeking to know Christ.”

“Practical and applicable--the content as well as the presentation of the content should hit most people right where they live. The reader does not have to feel as though they should be a vocational minister or seminary trained person to put the challenges and promises of the book into practice.”
Roger Marsh
Raceway Ministries
“By using a NASCAR race and the power of the car to illustrate his message, "The Race" Rick presents the christian's walk of faith to victory. A book well worth reading for every believer.”

“In the past few years, I have spent time with authors and publishing industry types. We’re all pushing our books and looking for people to review them. It’s rare that I find a book that I feel as comfortable reviewing as I do this book. And I don’t watch NASCAR very much. There have been several books that I wanted to be good, but when I read them I was disappointed. Not so with this book. This is a downright good book and I highly recommend it to anyone, but especially for those men (or women) out there who are NASCAR fans.”

“Okay, so I'm not a huge NASCAR fan. That doesn't mean the truth of Pastor Rick's words don't just jump off the page and show me exactly what he's trying to say. Even though I wasn't totally familiar with all the terminology, the way he explains it and relates it to the Christian walk is so clear, so compelling, that I couldn't put the book down. His thoughts are so organized and concise, yet he manages to completely convey the love of God and his message of the abundant life in Christ available to all of us. He makes it so accessible by relating it to a subject that seems, on the surface, not at all related to the gospel.”
