The Faith Code: A Future-Proof Framework for a Life of Meaning and Impact
Description
A pastor and a tech guru provide a path to sustaining a soulful life
In an age when new ideas, trends, and innovations can alter the world overnight, a strong foundation in faith can be the guiding light. In fact, without that connection to a higher power, many not only feel a deep sense of unease about a soulless future, but also wonder: are there values and beliefs we should we be building our lives on? Are there ones we should be comfortable letting change?
A groundbreaking book that offers a unique antidote to the most urgent spiritual and cultural ailments of our time, The Faith Code is the product of nearly a decade of collaboration between a prominent pastor who resides in the heart of San Francisco Bay's technology hub, and a renowned Silicon Valley investor, leader, and philanthropist. By combining moral and ethical counsel with the pioneering tactics of entrepreneurship and community building, Terry Brisbane and Rusty Rueff have methodically distilled the essentials of what it takes to live a full life while simultaneously becoming citizens who contribute to the world around us. From important matters of career and vocation advancement to the pillars of fulfilling relationships both at home and in our social circles, this trailblazing guide will give any reader the tools necessary to apply the time-tested wisdom of the gospel to the contemporary struggles of today. What results is a transformative journey with three different pathways interwoven together: being faith-driven, pursing personal improvement, and doing good, meaningful work.

-SCOTT HARRISON, Founder and CEO of charity: water and New York Times bestselling author of Thirst
"This is a book the twenty-first century needs. We face greater challenges in technology and culture than ever before, but the answers of faith and doing good haven't changed. We just need to understand them in new light--and The Faith Code is filled with new light on long-established wisdom and purpose."
-SANYIN SIANG, Professor at Duke University and CEO Coach and Advisor
"The Bay Area is known for its technological advancements, literally changing the world through innovation....Bridging the faith to work gap is critical if not the only way to present the love of Christ to the technical diaspora gathered in this dwelling place....Terry and Rusty have brought a unique perspective of this challenge with new insights and experiences to provide a foundation to bridge this gap."
-PAT GELSINGER, CEO of Intel
"We can either go with the flow into the shallows or find a new way forward into lives of greater significance and humanity. It's up to us. If you want the latter of these two, then reading something like The Faith Code is a great way to begin a lifelong conversation about growth and loving the people and work that mean the most to us."
-JAMES CHAM, Venture Capitalist at Bloomberg Beta
