- Helped "Fundamental Baptist" churches start in conjunction with Norris.
- When Rice refused to bend to Norris's will, the older man threatened him and then viciously attacked him in print.
- Rice's sermons were in the same sensationalism as Norris', for example, "The Dance--Child of the Brothel, Sister of Gambling and Drunkenness, Mother of Lust--Road to Hell!" and Diseased, Decaying Bodies with Undying Maggots and Unquenched Fire in Hell"
- The specific focus of Rice was that churches are not to take care of Christians but to win souls i.e. evangelism.
- Since Rice followed this thought, he spent much time away preaching in other churches that in his own church, and they staged a coup.
- In 1934 Rice started the Sword of the Lord, a bi-weekly publication to influence Fundamental Baptists.
- 1940 Rice reenter evangelism.
- Perhaps his most popular books were Prayer--Asking and Receiving (1942) and The Home: Courtship, Marriage, and Children (1945). Rice also wrote commentaries on books of the Bible, and he attacked humanism, worldliness (especially movies and dancing), evolution, fraternal lodges, and the Southern Baptist Convention. A special target was religious liberalism.
- Evangelism conferences - In 1945 Rice organized Sword of the Lord Conferences.
- Many churches looked to Rice and his inclusion of evangelists as approval of sorts.
- Rice separated from neo-evangelicals (see links Dr. John R Rice Biography and wikipedia.org)
