Critics Review

“I never knew what was driving me, but now I get it…I have the Danger Habit! This book has helped me learn how my need for speed can be used for good, rather than as a destructive force in my life.”
- Chandler Browne, President, Christian Surfers United States

“When I was in my late twenties I volunteered to smuggle Bibles across the Chinese border. It was one of the most terrifying and thrilling adventures of my life. Up until that time I had done many things to experience the adrenaline rush that I craved. And like Mike, I never fully met that need until I gave that area of my life over to the purposes of Christ - then I discovered a life of true adventure that brought satisfaction and lasting purposes. I would dare anyone who feels driven to experience life to the fullest to read this book.”
- Tri Robinson, Senior Pastor of the Vineyard in Boise, ID and author of two books, Saving God’s Green Earth and Revolutionary Leadership

“Through the honesty and transparency of his life and writing, Mike reinforces that crucial need for people who are relentlessly driven for new challenges and experiences to constantly seek and be vulnerable to God’s movement in our lives.”
- Christian Buckley, President, Covered Images

The Danger Habit reads like an ops plan for God’s very own ‘special forces’…His warriors with extreme natures. Barrett puts them solidly in the fight…the Right fight. Anyone battling to understand how to combine thrill and theology, risk and reverence, will find this book and inspiring guide.”
- Lt. Steve Elliott, Wisconsin’s 2001 Police Officer of the Year
