“Kill the Noise by my friend Ryan Ries is the definition of a maximum send for the Kingdom of God in the 21st century. This is a book about adventurously living with telos and purpose brimming over in your heart, as you bid farewell to religion and embrace an exciting friendventure with the God of hope. Read it. Get one for your friend. And skateboard with Ryan into the colony and outpost of heaven he’s creating on earth." (Ben Courson, founder of Hope Generation, international speaker, pastor, TV and radio personality, and best-selling author of Optimisfits and Flirting with Darkness)

“My friend Ryan Ries has always been very transparent about how his obsession with hard-core drug use and women permeated his former life to levels that would shock even the most seasoned partiers. But the biggest shocker is how God has completely redirected Ryan’s passion from party animal to displaying the real and tangible love of Christ to thousands of young people with the Whosoevers’ Kill the Noise tour! Kill the Noise isn’t just another book. Kill the Noise is a life-igniting tool that carries authentic power to guide the most wounded and defeated souls straight into this mystery of Christ within. The last thing the world needs right now is another watered-down religious book! We need raw. We need real. We need authentic. We need to KILL THE NOISE.” (Brian “Head” Welch, cofounder of the Grammy Award-winning band Korn, New York Times best-selling author of Save Me from Myself, Stronger, and With My Eyes Wide Open, and costar of the Showtime movie Loud Krazy Love)

“I’ve known Ryan for more than eleven years and will never forget the day I met him with my fiancé (at the time) Oz Fox. With tears in his eyes, he shared his incredible story of how God took his wild, rebellious heart and transformed it into a burning flame of love for God and His people. Raw, refreshing, and beautifully, brutally honest. That’s the only way I can describe Ryan’s radical story of transformation in Kill the Noise. This book will captivate you, inspire you, and motivate you to live and learn more about the amazing grace of God and the power of surrender. Like fresh wind from heaven, Ryan’s journey is masterfully and honestly written, full of twists and turns into the dark world of addiction and rock and roll. But, ultimately, it finds its way into the bright world of redemption and true liberty of the soul. Ryan is the real deal. He went above and beyond on this book…and I just could not put this down...neither will you!” (Annie Lobert, wife of Oz Fox (Stryper), founder and CEO of Hookers for Jesus and Annie’s Pink Chair)
