"The Dream Maker
by Bruce Wilkinson, the famed author of The
Prayer of Jabez,
tells us that every person on earth has been given a "Big Dream"
to pursue. He prods us to let go of the "Familiar," stand
up against the nay-saying "Border Bullies," and follow that
dream into the Land of Promise. The main antagonists in this "parable"
are those concerned parents or pastors who might wisely question an
exciting, feeling-based "Dream" or captivating adventure
into the unknown....
"Since
Mr. Wilkinson's books have inspired millions of people and influenced
countless ministries around the world, The Dream Giver warrants
our scrutiny. Four questions we might ask are:
-
What kind of a dream is his "Big Dream"?
-
Does the Dream Giver in the book present or misrepresent the ways
of our Lord?
-
Would
this Dream-Driven journey be based on our personal strengths and
wants or on God's Grace and Word?
