Dream Treasure: Learning the Language of Heaven Gerald R Doctor

?Dream Treasure? is a comprehensive interactive resource on how to discover God?s guidance and counsel in dreams. Key biblical principles help readers navigate the world of dreaming, teaching them how to test the validity of a dream interpretation. The spiritual practice of listening to dreams is grounded firmly in the Holy Scriptures, beliefs of the early Church Fathers, traditional Christian worldview, and the historic evidence of dreamers down through the ages. In addition to helping us sense the future, dreams are a means to receive God?s transforming grace, fostering holistic growth and spiritual development. Using illustrative dream experiences spanning more than 30 years, the authors document the profound influence of dreams upon every dimension of their lives. ?Dream Treasure? provides an in-depth understanding of the symbolic language commonly found in dreams. It examines how this heavenly language was used in the Bible and why God communicates His sacred truths this way. Readers learn practical tools to determine what a symbol means to the them in their own inner world, rather than rely upon fixed meanings for symbols. Throughout the book, readers are given interactive learning questions, and are introduced to dream interpretation strategies, skills and techniques, including imaginative, noninterpretive and symbolic approaches. Identification of seven distinct dream categories enables dreamers to explore their dreams using the appropriate dream interpretation technique. A step-by-step guide shows how to explore a dream, draw out its meaning, and connect with God?s divine purpose in it.
