The Risk Factor Crossing the Chicken Line into Your Supernatural Destiny was written by a father-son team who discuss the dynamics and importance of risk as a Kingdom lifestyle of faith that rockets believers into the supernatural and into fulfilling their unique God-given destinies.
Through many down-to-earth and inspiring true stories, the Dedmons raise the standard for what is attainable for all believers including healing. You are challenged to embrace and celebrate risk and encouraged to take steps to cross your own chicken line to see what God will do through you as a world changer and history maker.

Fear has caused so many of us to settle for a mundane, boring and meaningless existence. Our need for the great adventure is being siphoned off by virtual games, Internet and television. Its here that we have exchanged the authentic desire to be a hero and to live on the edge; for predictable scripts, plastic plants and computer-generated stunts. Think about it folks, what great message will be inscribed on our tombstones, Here lies a man who watched movies. The truth is that our inner man hungers to really live, to take a risk and to be a part of something worth dying for.
In their book, Kevin and Chad Dedmon challenge us to step over the chicken line, and take hold of our divine destiny. I have known both of these men for more than ten years. This father and son team is like the dynamic duo; real life superheroes who have spent the last several years living at extreme risk. Their testimonies are almost unbelievable and their lives are full of zeal. Whether you are a bored, visionless believer or a passionate Christian who needs to learn the skill of stepping out in faith . . . this book is for you! But Beware! This book could get you off the couch and put your life at risk!

In my life and ministry I have rarely met such amazing risk takers as Kevin and Chad Dedmon. They are perfectly suited to write this book because their lives give us courage by the very choices they make all the time. They both have a unique perspective in their faith to live life with a full yes to God and they are catalytic in their inspirational journey: thus the book is born out of real examples. If you want to truly be radical this book will impart a zeal and skill set to change the very foundation of how you live.
