Review Quotes

"Surviving a life that's found you endlessly walking the tightrope of survival is
simply remarkable. Realizing God's grace and goodness in it is profound. And
accounting for it all in written word to challenge, encourage, and inspire others
is a truly meaningful labour of love. With raw transparency, Kevin White walks
readers through the dark worlds he's known, ultimately to find the most radiant
of lights awaiting at the end of each one."
--Tim Huff, author, speaker, social-justice worker

"I was as moved by Kevin John White's devastating and glorious story as I was
by his manner of telling it--sometimes elegant and wise, at other times believably
raw and unvarnished. Always leaning into meaning and grace, Dancing on a
Razor is humbling and beautiful."
--Steve Bell, singer-songwriter, author

"This is a remarkable book! It is a testimony that reveals an intimacy in the
father-heart of God when his children experience his grace, his forgiveness, his
reconciliation, and his restoration in their lives. In a revealing and transparent
manner, Kevin describes his journey with such honesty and forthrightness that
the reader almost becomes part of the journey. Kevin reveals how he was in the
battle zone between Heaven and Hell and what it is really like to enter into the
pit of hopelessness. Yet God never forgets about him. Dancing On A Razor is a
graphic description of the power of God's redemption in our lives--and shows
that God really is a heart-reader more than a lip-reader no matter what we are
going through. This book is for you!"
