Ambition isn’t the enemy—it’s the answer.

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • Ruslan KD went from refugee to success story. Now the influential YouTuber, artist, and entrepreneur shares his playbook for building a career that leverages your gifts, serves your community, and glorifies God.

Trying to make our way in a fast-moving world, we can often feel overwhelmed, ill-equipped, and unsure of next steps. And ambition? Many times, it’s mistaken for selfishness and gets a bad rap. But what if ambition, rooted in faith, is exactly what you need to uncover your purpose, sharpen your skills, and make an impact for God's kingdom?

In Godly Ambition, hip-hop artist, entrepreneur, and popular YouTuber Ruslan KD shares his story—from growing up as a refugee with a single mom to facing a future headed for trouble. Instead, faith and hard work led him to a life filled with purpose, impact, and peace.

In this book, you'll learn how to

• understand the difference between selfish and godly ambition
• clarify your identity and purpose in Christ
• make the most of where you are right now while building toward your future
• develop skills that set you apart
• take simple, actionable steps to move forward in your life

No fluff. No hype. Just practical insights to help you chase the right goals and live with deeper purpose. Wherever you are today, Godly Ambition will challenge and inspire you to live boldly for God, using your gifts to make a difference.

Christian principles for living practically and effectively

This book was a great blueprint for young Christians who want to answer the call of God on their lives while also pursuing practical life skills and careers. I wish I had this book when I was younger as I dived fully into ministry without regarding practical matters of life. It would have saved me a couple headaches.

A book for all young people

Every single person from 15 to 35 should read this book. Every one. It’s the single best nonfiction book I’ve ever read, or in this case, listened to. It’s a coherent, organized plan for progressing a life, in a way that stays within God’s will. Thank you Ruslan for writing this. I’m going to buy several hard copies to give out to the young people I know.

Great kick-start to your dream job journey

Ruslan covers all the topics you need to take that first step towards the deeply meaningful career and life many of us pine for. It’s a 30,000 foot view of many subjects that have been covered at length by a variety of authors, but never all at once and in such a simple way. Indie Jones did it again!

Excellent Encouragement And Advice

I got this book initially because I am working to start my own business and I wanted to do it God's way.

I had no idea going in that the advice in this book would help me strengthen not only my resolve, but also my walk with Christ.

Excellent work, well written, and the author did phenomenal with the audio!

The Encouragement

Listened to 1 time. Thought it a really great book. Practical. Anecdotal. Experiential. Encouraging. Chapters 7, 9, & 10 are 🔥🔥🔥. Well done Ruslan and Co. for the book entirely but particularly those chapters. Looking forward to listening to it again. Got the hardback so will be following along visually as well. Bravo on the book. 👏👏👏👏👏
