These Christian NASCAR Drivers Put God First And Their Testimonies Are Powerful

Several Christian NASCAR drivers sit down to share their testimonies in this incredible video. And their stories of putting God first are truly inspiring!

The video starts out with Darrell Waltrip sharing how he thought he had to be arrogant in racing. Then, Trevor Bayne shares that the focus required for racing is very intense.

Michael Mcdowell chimes in that one mistake in their sport can cost the race. Aric Almirola says the car is 3,600 pounds and there is the large challenge of controlling it. David Starr says that the intensity builds as a race goes on. 

The Christian NASCAR drivers candidly share the excitement of doing well in a race, but the fleeting feeling afterward. They knew something was missing in their lives.

Joe Gibbs begins to share wisdom that real adversity or real success are the hardest things in life. Suddenly, each racer shares how they came to their saving faith in Jesus. 

Testimonies From Christian NASCAR Drivers

Many of them address their own selfishness and pride in how the Lord has humbled and grown them and given them joy. At the end they share their names and it ends with Joe Gibbs saying, “In this race, I finish second.”

One thing that stood out to me in this video is that even though each of the Christian NASCAR drivers had different testimony of faith, God drew them into a relationship with Him. 

Many times it was due to the joyful lives believers were living around them in the midst of their worldly successes. Christ can shine brightly through us and others will see His love for them. Thankfully people were bold enough to share their faith with the racers and they all are second for Jesus.
