Take the Risk

In Take the Risk, renowned surgeon Ben Carson, writing with Gregg Lewis, explores how facing uncertainty can lead to meaningful personal growth and achievement. Drawing on his medical career and personal life, Carson examines why people often fear the unknown and how learning to identify, choose, and live with acceptable risk can transform how we make decisions.

Rather than avoiding every danger or leaping forward recklessly, Carson encourages readers to weigh choices thoughtfully and trust in their faith when stepping into unfamiliar territory.
