What does it take for dreams to become reality? Dreams come true, but what does it take for dreams to become reality? It takes effort and commitment. First of all, you need to seek the Lord to know if your dreams are in His perfect will. Pray and fast; allow Him to speak to you. Then be led by the Holy Spirit and the Word of God, and surround yourself with people whom you trust, those who will stand by you and help you to achieve your God-given dreams. Not only will your vision and dream give you the motivation and commitment to discipline your life, it will also inspire and affect others around you to live out their dreams in Christ.

Of all the apostles, Paul’s conversion/calling story was arguably the most notable and miraculous, his assignment to take the Gospel to the Gentiles the most unique, and the tangible results of his obedience the most impressive by human standards. Even so, Paul did not operate as a lone wolf, set apart from the pack and self-sufficient. On the contrary, this hero of the Christian faith understood the essential role his brothers and sisters played in his life and stayed connected to them even when his assignment to preach and live truth called him away for long stretches of time.

Our five guests will speak of their experiences in fasting with others.

Christian leadership is radically different from any other leadership. With the church and community desperately needing godly leaders, this plan forms the fifth of seven biblical foundations for Christian leaders. "Faith" takes a biblical look at the issue of leadership vision and concludes that biblical leaders weren't necessarily visionaries, but they were full of faith. It explores how to discern and pursue "faith visions."

In 50 carefully selected passages from the Bible, you will discover the essential question Paul asked the Lord while he was traveling to Damascus: "What shall I do, Lord?" Have you ever asked yourself, What difference am I making with my life? On some level, we all struggle to find our own answer to that fundamental question.
