The Dream Giver: Pursuing Your God Given Destiny

Product Information

This is a great book for anyone who dares to believe that maybe God wants something different--something bigger--than what they've currently grabbed hold of.

Ordinary's longing for his Big Dream grew and grew, until finally he realized that he'd never be happy unless he could pursue it. I also love how it shows how much God plays a huge role in our dreams and that we need to rely on Him for help along the way. This particular Giant has enslaved a village of Anybodies and while other travelers have come this way many have turned back unwilling to face the battle. That is not to say that someone not of the Christian faith can’t find use and revelation from this book – it is just a note so that the context of the lessons make sense; since the book starts off with an allegory. And, I say all this knowing it is easier said than done for any of us when we are in the middle of a conversation/coaching session with someone.But I had a few hours to kill, and the book was thin enough and written in big print, so I gave it a shot. I’m gifting my copy to my brother in hopes this helps motivate him to recognize a dream and work towards it. When he does, he is given the understanding of how his Big Dream is only a piece of the Dream Giver’s immense plan. Told in the form of an allegory of an individual named Ordinary, The Dream Giver takes him on a journey from his land of Familiar and away from his Comfort Zone into the land of the unknown as he pursues his Dream.

The Dream Giver is comprised of two parts with part one including a fictional story on fulfilling your dream. I think this book could be a great tool for evangelizing the unchurched because the descriptions of Ordinary's experiences will speak to them and confirm the reality of God's hand upon their lives. In 2001, his career took a decisive new direction with the founding of Global Vision Resources, a private non-profit operating foundation that produces, markets, and distributes video and curriculum products to retail outlets, businesses, schools, and ministries around the world.
