What is God saying to you in your dreams? Decoding Your Dreams is a beginner’s guide to understanding the true source of our dreams, dream classifications, and even dream symbols. This book answers questions like: Can we control our dreams? I used to dream all the time. Why has my dream life suddenly ceased? Should I pray for the gift of dream interpretation? What does it mean if I see people in my dreams who have already passed away? When do I share a dream I’ve received and when do I keep it to myself? Where does déjà vu fit into the world of dreams? Why should I pay attention to my children’s dreams? There are dozens of mentions of dreams in the Bible. From Abraham to Joseph, from Daniel all the way to Pontius Pilot’s wife, God has communicated with His people through dreams throughout recorded history. Why would God choose to speak to us while we sleep? Perhaps it’s because we are too distracted during the day to sit still long enough for Him to share the deep secrets of His heart. Jennifer LeClaire is convinced God speaks to us in ways that are very personal. At times he may use pictures, memories, impressions, or even a still small voice. Let Decoding Your Dreams help you embrace your Spirit-inspired dreams!

She takes readers by the heart and says, "Yes! You can do this! Let's go!" and then guides them forward with a loving hand. A licensed counselor and certified life coach, Holley insightfully combines inspiration with practical application in this positive book.

Your dreams are messages direct from the unconscious--so awaken yourself to their significance through correct analysis. Since a dream can have many interpretations depending upon your personal situation, each of the 1,300 alphabetically listed entries provides up to three meanings for each element--symbolic, psychological, and visionary-and then further distinguishes it by context. Because sometimes a cigar is only a cigar; but it could mean you are afraid of reality, about to conclude a business deal, or undergoing sexual urges!

Throughout history to the present day, religion has ideologically fueled wars, conquests, and persecutions. Christianity and Islam, the world's largest and geopolitically powerful faiths, are often positioned as mortal enemies locked in an apocalyptic "clash of civilizations." Rarely are similarities addressed. Dreaming in Christianity and Islam, the first book to explore dreaming in these religions through original essays, fills this void. The editors reach a plateau by focusing on how studying dreams reveals new aspects of social and political reality. International scholars document the impact of dreams on sacred texts, mystical experiences, therapeutic practices, and doctrinal controversies.

In today's fluid culture, many churches are adrift--longing to reach spiritually thirsty people, but failing to make an impact. Have you noticed? Congregations are stuck or declining. Millennials and Gen Z are walking away. Volunteers and their generosity are drying up. Is your city, town, or neighborhood spiritually dry? Do you long to see more of the living water of Jesus flowing freely through your community, generating a fresh wave of ministry momentum? Buckle up: you're in for a whitewater ride! Liquid Church tells the fascinating story of a New Jersey church that began "on accident" and grew into one of America's 100 Fastest-Growing Churches, with over 5,000 in weekly attendance and more than 2,400 baptisms to date. Their secret? They harnessed the power of six powerful ministry currents sweeping across North America including: special needs, creative communication, ministry mergers, compassionate cause, radical generosity, and leadership development. With powerful stories and scriptural insights, backed by national research, Tim Lucas and Warren Bird describe dozens of fresh ideas, new ministry wineskins, and hard-won leadership learnings that resonate with rising generations in today's "show-then-tell" culture. Each chapter includes practical tools, real-life examples, and links to "Other Churches Making Waves" with cutting-edge ministry ideas designed to help saturate your city for Christ. Ready to dive deeper? Whether you serve a brand-new church plant, fast-growing congregation, or an aging ministry ready for reinvention, Liquid Church is an inspiring and practical guide for leaders ready to reach their spiritually thirsty neighbors--those who have given up on church, but haven't given up on God.

The most fruitful and most profound understandings of vision and visioning processes are not in organizational theories or management techniques. They are instead in the Bible and Christian theology, claims the author of this book. To explain his case, the author analyzes and challenges the views of management experts and consultants regarding vision and visioning processes in secular and church organizations. He interprets key biblical stories and texts about vision, and explores a theology of vision and place of vision in theology and the church. On the basis of his experience and studies, the author shares his vision of his own Presbyterian Church's present realities and its pathways to the future.

In her intimate autobiographical account "Lucid Dreams and the Holy Spirit" Maria Isabel Pita shared how she was led home to Christ through her dreams. From the very first night she began lucid dreaming, she encountered a male dream figure with a presence and sentience unlike any other. The dreams in which He came to her were intensely special and, following the clues over several years, she finally dared to ask herself if this Person could be Christ's gift to us of the Holy Spirit; God Himself. Dream by dream, her soul was guided along a path in keeping with Christian mystical tradition. But it was only the beginning.In the writings of the early Church, numerous references are made to people who became Christians as a result of waking visions as well as dreams of the night. According to the third century theologian Origen of Alexandria, dreams, waking visions, and divine inspiration are all essentially the same thing--a way God reveals himself to us, and gives us a symbolic knowledge of the nature of the spiritual world; of heaven. The Church calls such dreams a Charisma--any good gift that flows down to us from God's love.Maria has logged hundreds of dreams, many of which she could not fully understand until they came to pass, and until she began educating herself on the truths of the faith they inspired her to embrace, and which proved the Master Key to understanding, working and living with her dreams. This book will take you on an enthralling journey rich with examples and advice on how to make the most of our dreams as an inspiring part of our life in Christ.Table of Contents:1 - Dreams and Christianity2 - Body and Soul3 - Reading the Night's Messages4 - The Theory of Reincarnation5 - Demons on Our Doorstep6 - Angels of God7 - Meeting in Dreams8 - Dreaming of the Dead & Purgatory9 - Dreams of Jesus10 - Time & Revelation11 - Spiritual Warfare12 - God's Business13 - Called to ContemplationAfterword - "He and I"

How do I know it's God? is one of the most commonly asked questions of new and mature Christians alike, and the aim of God Conversations is to both equip and inspire the reader and show them that hearing the voice of the Spirit is accessible to everyone who chooses to follow Jesus. Most Christians know that God speaks, yet struggle with how to recognise his voice in their everyday lives. What does God's voice sound like? How do we know if what we're hearing is from God? Stories of God talking to his people abound throughout the Bible, but we usually only get the highlights. We read; "And God said to Joseph; 'Go to Egypt'," and then; "Mary and Joseph left for Egypt." We don't get a blow-by-blow description of how God spoke. We don't receive a detailed explanation of how they knew it was God, and we don't get to see what was going on inside their heads as they acted on what they'd heard. In God Conversations, international speaker and pastor Tania Harris shares insights from her own journey about hearing God's voice. You'll get to eavesdrop on some contemporary conversations with God in the light of his communication with the ancient characters of the Bible. Part memoir, part teaching, this unique and creative collection of stories will help you to recognise God's voice when he speaks and how to respond when you do.
