Welcome to Racetrackbiblestudy.com. We are a ministry that serves the spiritual as well as the social needs of the racetrack community with bible studies, jockeys room devotions, ministry outreach picnics, counseling, weddings and more. For the past 4 years Chaplain Richard Mena has used his ministerial gifts of spreading the good word breaking down the bible verse by verse. We're thrilled you've stopped by to check us out. We record our bible studies to make them available online.
We are pleased to provide you with audio archives of our bible study. It is available via download or streaming audio. Feel free to save a study and burn it to c.d. and share it with a friend, co worker or anyone for that matter. We hope you are blessed in listening to Chaplain Richard. Our ministry has provided devotions to the Southern California jockey colony in their room before the start of the racing day. We have recorded and posted these devotions to our website for jockeys and everyone else to hear. If anyone would like a copy on c.d. please email us a request at thoroughbred@racetrackbiblestudy.com with your snail mail address and we would be happy to send you out a copy. Free downloads of these studies are also available upon request. Click here to hear our jocks room devotions.
