Rescuing Ambition

This pioneering book rescues ambition from suspicion byputting it to work for the glory of God.Many think of ambition as nothing more than the drive forpersonal honor or fame. As a result, ambition-theGod-implanted drive to improve, produce, develop, andcreate-is neglected and well on its way to paralysis.For some, dreams are numbed. For others, there are no dreams;life just happens. And for those who are dreaming, motives areoften confused. One this is certain: ambition needs help.Dave Harvey is calling for a rescue. He wants to snatch ambitionfrom the heap of failed motivations and put it to work for theglory of God. To understand our ambition, we must understand thatwe are on a quest for glory. And where we find glory determines thesuccess of our quest.Has your God-given ambition been starved and sedated for toolong? Are you ambitious? Itrs"s time to reach further and dreambigger for the glory of God.
