Kenny Luck brings to light much-needed attention to a mans purpose in society. We as men must take a stand to preserve our identity in an environment that attempts to lower the bar. By giving the glory to God, Kenny shows us the path to true integrity, friendship, and the Lords direction. The Lord has given us the directions, should we choose to follow them. By speaking to us as a man of Christ speaks to another manas Christ spoke to his disciplesKenny brings forth the Word of God and, in doing so, brings us closer to the Lord. Thank you, Kenny, for your leadership, dedication, and love of mankind.
MARK OZ GEIST , US Marine (retired), survivor of the Battle of Benghazi, as told in 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi
What I love about Kenny is that he writes in a way that gets to the heart of men. In Dangerous Good, he rips to the core of healthy masculinity and expresses what all men want to be true of ourselves while inviting us to use our strength for maximum impact. Dangerous Good is flammable, and the world wants this movement to catch fire because of the blessings it will bring to women, children, and families.
DOUG FIELDS, author and executive director, HomeWord, Azusa Pacific University
Dangerous Good is a wake-up call to all men. In this book, Kenny Luck challenges men to put down the remote control and wade into the problems in our society. Most of these problems began when good men failed to live up to the noble purpose for which God created them.
JEFF STRUECKER, author of Bullet Proof Faith
In Dangerous Good, Kenny Luck activates the hearts of men by awakening the deepest desires within them. Luck shows how easily our identities get hijacked by impostors and guides us to the dangerous-yet-good identity God desires us to find. If you want to grow in bravery or vulnerability, Dangerous Good will be a valuable resource for your journey.
JAY STRINGER, author of Unwanted
As our world grapples with what it means to be a man amidst our crumbling moral culture, Kenny Luck directs us back to the only rock-solid exampleJesus Christ. In Dangerous Good: The Coming Revolution of Men Who Care, Kenny explores the Bible thoroughly and thoughtfully, providing a field guide for how men can not only heal the wounds of past generations but also lead with the clarity, conviction, and compassion of Christ.
CHRIS HODGES, senior pastor at Church of the Highlands and author of Fresh Air and The Daniel Dilemma
More than a self-help book, Dangerous Good is a biblical play-by-play map to male authenticity and freedom in Christ. Each chapter is an intelligent and compelling guide to higher-level character, personal awareness, and a dangerously good self! Women, this is the book youve been waiting for! Toxic patriarchy and toxic feminism are turned on their heads. Christs model of mutual respect, male integrity, and biblical feminism collaborating together for family, church, and community leads the way for a dangerously good movement!
ANNETTE OLTMANS, founder of The MEND Project
I love so much about this timely, inspiring book. While our culture flounders to make sense of gender differences, Kenny Luck expertly outlines the divine solution to both broken masculinity and reactive feminism, calling men to step up and into their full potential. Look out, evil: Dangerous good is coming for you!
JESSIE MINASSIAN, blogger, speaker, and author of Family: How to Love Yours (and Help Them Like You Back)
From the day I first met Kenny twenty-five years ago, he has always told me the truth. Nothing has changed since then. This book tells me the truth about me and the one who knows my identity bestJesus. With memorable turns of phrase, beginning with the very title, Dangerous Good is a winsome, passionate, biblical call for men of God to bear a family resemblance.
