You're a radical. You're the one who asks "why" instead of just taking someone's word for it. You seek out thrills and adventure like your friends seek out the latest cool video. You've got what it takes to have a radical, life-changing relationship with Christ. Mike Barrett shares from his heart and experience how to have "adventure faith" and live an extreme life-with less risk of physical injury!

Live the Life You Were Made For! Amped for adventure, dulled by responsibilities? Always searching, never settling? Being a believer doesn't mean you have to leave your daredevil self behind. God has given you a love of risk for a reason. Learn to focus your energy on the one chance that's really worth taking - faith in a God that is anything but boring. Mike Barrett writes to every fidgety believer who's itching for more, using modern-day and biblical stories of adventure to prove that living on the edge can be the Lord's work. Find what it is you're fighting for, and discover the adventure God made you to live.

    Tell us a little about yourself.  Surfer, climber, and serious about business. Married with four kids. Also a lay Pastor at a surfer-friendly church on the Oregon coast.

    What was your motivation behind this project?  I don't really fit either and I havn't totally grown out of it. My addictions to risk have really hurt me and those around me in the past.

    What do you hope folks will gain from this project?  I want to see the radicals among us, those who don't really fit inside a typical church or religious system, get rocked by God's amazing plan for their life. I want them to see that God made them "extreme" for a reason. An extremely important reason.

    Who are your influences, sources of inspiration or favorite authors / artists?  John Eldridge, Eugene Pederson, The Daily Show with Jon Stewert, CS Lewis, Steven Colbert, Os Guinness, and Fuel TV

    Anything else you'd like readers / listeners to know:  Lets discuss this together. I have a blog called Adventurefaith. Lets go do something completely radical, but with Christ this time.
