Chris "Hacksaw" Martin I was raised in a Christian family and went to church all my life. I took for granted that I knew Jesus as my Lord and Savior, but found out later that I did not. God will make you be still and listen. At the age of 21, I ended up in the hospital flat on my back. During that time, I found a peace while lying there. God was with me and He did hear my prayers. As it says, in Matthew 6:33, “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” After putting God first in my life and experiencing a true relationship with the Him, I learned that He is in complete control of my life and all things; I should sit still, listen and do His will, even when I didn’t think it is possible or doable. Today, I am working for Richard Childress Racing. I am the rear tire changer for the #29 Holiday Inn team. I have three championships and over 30 wins in my career; and I am living the dream of my life that I thought I could never achieve. However, I receive a bigger blessing when I am able share my testimony with people in the world of motorsports. People ask me all the time how I got my job. I always say, well that is a funny thing – God put me flat on my back and showed me that if I would sit still and listen, He will add all the things that I could possibly imagine; and I just praise Him for it!
