Faith-Driven Risk
Why bold, faithful risk-taking is scriptural, not reckless. The Bible is full of leaders who stepped out before the outcome was certain.
A Book by Matthew Chang
Risk Taking
Is Biblical
What the Bible tells us about pursuing Kingdom building.
By Matthew Chang
Visionary engineer and founder Matthew Chang reveals how faith-driven risk can transform business and life, drawing on scripture and two decades of building to guide Christian entrepreneurs and leaders.
About the Book
A field guide for leaders who believe their work is a calling.
Risk Taking Is Biblical makes a counterintuitive case: the kind of bold, faithful decision-making that builds great companies is modeled all through scripture rather than a departure from it. From Abraham to the parable of the talents, the Bible rewards those who steward what they're given by putting it to work.
Matthew Chang brings that conviction into the high-stakes, high-uncertainty world of modern business. Part theology, part hard-won operating experience, the book examines what scripture teaches about financial stewardship, leading employees, generous giving, and the courage to decline the safe path when your mission demands more.
It's written for the Christian entrepreneur, the founder weighing a risk, and any leader who wants their work to build something that lasts.
“Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed.”

What leaders are saying
Essential reading for any faith-based founder. Matthew makes the case that taking the leap is the expression of faith, not the opposite of it.
This book strips away the complexity and gets straight to the heart of our calling. A clear, conviction-driven guide for leaders who want their work to mean something.
