Publisher's Description

No Dream Is Too Small--or Too Big--for GodDo you have dreams you long to fulfill yet feel you just can't? Wai Jia felt that way. Having met abandoned girls in Nepal who were traumatically evicted repeatedly, she longed to do more. Inspired by their audacious hope, she dared to dream brave--and, at the age of 18, raised $100,000 to build them a home, changing their lives forever. Since then, her life has been a series of radical yeses to God's call to faith. Today, as a multi-award-winning, international humanitarian, physician, and nonprofit founder, Tam addresses the self-doubt and fear we all have. Through powerful stories, biblical insights, and practical principles, she invites readers to embrace risk and push past setbacks. If you've ever felt too small to pursue your dreams, now is your time to step out in faith--and watch God do something far greater than you imagined.

“Wai Jia’s stories are told with such color that they’re going to pull you in. You’re going to be right there with her, gazing at the faces, hearing the voices, feeling the emotions, and looking up at the towering impossibilities. When you see how God turned her impossibilities into possibilities, your heart will fill with confidence that God will do the same for you.”

Bob Sorge

“J. John (Reverend Canon) “If you’ve ever wondered whether the wild stories of Acts—featuring a God who answers fledgling faith—could be true today, read Dream Brave. From the very first story of being in a Malaysian Buddhist temple and tentatively asking God if He was real, Dr. Tam invites us to listen and learn as she weaves together real stories, probing questions, Scriptural insight, and powerful testimonies of the God who still invites us to ask anything in His name.”

Bronwyn Lea

“Wai Jia Tam’s story of faith and perseverance has been a great blessing to witness. I love to see fresh generations of God’s children pursuing total supernatural devotion to God’s Kingdom, and her beautiful testimony is an example of so much that I always tried to preach and communicate. Love God, dream His dreams, and pursue them without fear—this is what she lives, and I invite you to listen to her with an open heart as she shares a precious example of all that this means in one family’s wholly given life.”

Heidi G. Baker

“Two words describe Dr. Wai Jia Tam, others and obedience. Her life is about serving others and walking in obedience to God. In this book, she is not just telling a story; she is inviting you into her story to experience adventure with God to fulfill His purpose.”

Nicky S. Raiborde

“We are all created to dream big, and Dream Brave will greatly inspire you to pursue your God-given dreams. Each chapter ends with reflection, activation, and prayer to empower you in your unique journey to dreaming big and dreaming bravely. This is a needed book in this hour.”

Steve Backlund

“If there is anyone who is qualified to write about dreaming brave, it is Wai Jia. She is a dreamer of dreams. But she does not just dream, she has the DNA of an ‘Indiana Jones’ who has seen many of those dreams come to pass. She is, in my estimation, one of the most colourful and adventurous people I know. She continues to amaze me with her stories of exploits with God, and I am certain there will be a Part Two to this book, because the adventure continues. I wholeheartedly recommend you read this book and dare to dream.”

Yang Tuck Yoong

“Dr. Wai Jia Tam has written a book worth reading, not just because it is packed full of truth, but because it is also an authentic expression of who she is. Every chapter records an encounter with God and a deep spiritual lesson learned about faith. Throughout the time I’ve had the privilege of knowing Wai Jia, she has been the personification of such courageous faith. She truly lives out the axiom that God did not call us to be safe, but He called us to be brave.”

Benny Ho

“Pastor Benny Ho, senior pastor, Faith Community Church, Perth “This is an inspiring and delightful book about having bold, brave dreams for God and seeing how He brings them to reality. Don’t read this if you aren’t open to be challenged and hear God’s call.”
