I have known Elizabeth as a writer and a Christian woman for many years! What an excellent exploration of her Christian walk--and run--thus far! In The Finish Line, she brings together two of her favorite things, her Christian walk and her love of running. In this endeavor, she helps the rest of us learn from her experience. This book is an insightful culmination of how we can lace up, dust off, stretch out, and make it to our own spiritual 'finish lines.'

In The Finish Line, Elizabeth Jimenez does a great job of comparing all facets of physical races with our spiritual ones. Her original ideas and instructions pivot on God's word to teach valuable lessons about running the race of life! This book is good for women's or teens Bible class studies as well as personal.

In our busy day to day lives, we often forget to keep our eyes trained on Christ. The Finish Line inspires each of us to run our race with joy, determination and excellence! This 13 week study delivers an interesting and easy framework to follow. It is packed with solid scriptural teaching as well as wise counsel and practical application. I've had the privilege of seeing Elizabeth live what she teaches and I'm thankful that others will have the opportunity to learn from her words.

The Finish Line is now one of my favorites. I could not put it down! Elizabeth lifts the reader from the sofa to God's spiritual race. Run alongside thought questions and scriptural reflections that force honesty and nudge us to stretch spiritually. Her words ebb and flow with encouragement to keep us in the race, ultimately crossing the finish line to heaven. I pray that each soul is blessed in reading and striving toward her personal finish. I could not be more thankful for Elizabeth saying yes to our Father in the writing of this beautiful and tremendous book.

Lace up your spiritual running shoes and run the Christian race with excellence. In The Finish Line, Elizabeth Jimenez compares her running experiences to the running of the Christian race. Whether it's the preparation, the discipline, the team, or the commitment to complete the race, there are many parallels between a physical race and a spiritual race. This book gives you instructions for a spiritual "couch to 5K".
