Week of Books: You're Made for a God-Sized Dream




Do you have a dream in your heart? Do you feel like giving up on that dream? Then this book is for you. In You’re Made for a God-Sized Dream, Holley becomes your guide in discovering that dream and then taking the first steps to making that dream come true. She discusses how we all have a dream(s) that is given to us by God and how those dreams change and grow through the years when we walk closely with the Lord. She defines success as being obedient to the Lord and discusses the obstacles that you are going to face while on the journey of your dream. She offers encouragement and examples of the dreams of others as well as her own dreams. She takes you through questions and exercises to get you thinking and discovering things about yourself and your God-sized dream.

Once I started reading I had a hard time stopping. Holley uses humor and hospitality to guide you in this book. As you are reading it you feel like you are sitting down with a friend or mentor and discussing the dreams in your heart. She uses examples from her own life which made me feel like I was friend of hers and that we were sitting down together and drinking tea. (She uses coffee a lot in the book, but I’m not a coffee drinker.) I read through the entire book once and I can’t wait to read through it again at a slower pace and taking the time to really answer the questions.
