Professional NASCAR™ Racing Pastor and Author, Jeff Knight, at Evergreen Speedway June 27th

MONROE, Wash. - June 26, 2015 - PRLog -- Three trips to the podium in his first three races of the 2015 season had fans betting with confidence that Jeff Knight was heading to the podium again. But, a crash in lap 102 of the Mark Galloway 150 Shootout at Evergreen Speedway on May 23^rd took him out of the race and sent him home to rebuild. Not a stranger to what many describe as catastrophes, Knight takes situations like this in stride. In fact, he has a reputation for turning tragedies into triumphs. For moving from the pits to the podium like the story of losing his parents in a plane crash to the highpoint of winning people to Christ and racing on a NASCAR™ Home Track. Knight describes his lifestyle merely as living The Revved Life.

The Revved Life is such a powerful approach to living, that Knight recently published it in a 332-page book of the same name. The Revved Life is a maximum-overdrive story of struggle, breakthrough, faith, and racing for Christ. It is beautifully raw and inspiring and speaks to the leader and believer inside each of us. Jeff Knight reveals the challenges he overcame, rising from the pits after the sudden death of his mom and dad in a plane crash to the top step of the NASCAR™ victor’s podium. In his quest, he left the safety of his church and pulpit to reach those far from God. Knight reveals his explosive discoveries and high-octane experiences that drove him to The Revved Life. The reader will eagerly enter the race.

“Each chapter walks you closer towards the passion and values lived out daily by Jeff. You can feel the urgency and you catch the intensity with each page. Get an extra copy, because you'll want to share it.” – Todd St. Germain

“As I look back over the years that I’ve been on the race track, I believe that God wanted to yank me out from behind the shelter of my pulpit and hurl me smack dab in the middle of real men who were racing cars. I have had a whole gambit of feelings. I wished to remain ignorant, but God wouldn’t let me. It meant I needed to challenge myself. Build my faith and learn when running at full speed.” – Excerpt from The Revved Life by Jeff Knight
