What do your dreams mean? It is difficult to know what our dreams mean. Many of mine are so senseless that they are comical. There are books about dream interpretation and they can be fascinating. The Bible records how God had spoken to people through dreams and visions. However, could this still occur today? If so, is it relevant for each of us?
Recently, my church had read the account of Joseph. We read the incredible dream that was given to him from God. He was gripped by that dream. It changed him, because the God of the Universe had spoken to him through that dream. But, does God still do this with us today? Absoutely!
I had a life-altering dream in college, and God had spoken to me. (I know you are skeptical and think I am weird; can't say I blame you.) But, I am not alone. In fact, in places of the Middle East, where some Muslims know very little about Jesus, people are experiencing dreams and vision from Jesus Christ. The dreams are compelling and credible. They are dreams which are so compelling that these people risk their lives by converting to following Jesus over Islam. A good friend, Rick Kronk has chronicled some of those dreams and found amazing similaries of the dreams, despite the geographical and personal differences of these people. Rick has compiled these stories in a book entilted, Dreams and Visions; Muslim's Miraculous Journey to Jesus.
I was privileged to be a reader for Rick's book as it was being developed. This is a fascinating and timely book. In it, you will learn, in lay-person terms, about Islam. You will develop a deepened understanding of Islam that may mitigate some of the militant positions against Islam as portrayed by our culture. You can discover how Jesus Christ, the God of the Universe, still speaks through dreams. Also, you will read in the Introduction, about my life-changing dream where Jesus had spoken to me. It is a read you will not regret.
To learn more or to purchase the book, go to http://nouvelleoptique.wordpress.com Perhaps, God's revelation to us is something we've relegated to the past but this book may open our eyes, minds and hearts to a God that is larger than our own conceptions. If you purchase the book, I welcome your feedback.

Dang... I was hoping you'd tell us about the dream!! I really don't need another book I'm not going to read ;-) I had a dream once, and it motivated me to tell Joey I wanted "to be more than friends"... even though he didn't at the time, he came around, and we were married about a year after the dream... I'd call that one life changing too, but I'd still like to hear about yours!
