Customer Reviews

Wonderful! Fills in what "Purpose Driven Life" lacked

This is a wonderful, encouraging book. It fills in the holes that other books leave out in the area of making sure that your dream is from God and that there are Kingdom purposes in it and not just dreams for our personal fulfillment. I felt so hopeful as I read. Each chapter took me deeper into the things and ways of God. It's not too late to dream! Even if your dream seems slow in being fulfilled be encouraged God is still working! It will come to pass. Mr Franklin has an easy way of writing that causes one to feel like he is speaking to you personally. Thank you, Jentezen, for writing this awesome book!

A Dream, A Vision, and A Passion

New York Times best selling author, Jentezen Franklin, tells of the power of an unforgettable dream in "Believe That You Can." He writes with the same passion, zeal, and holy fire that he encourages his readers to pursue. Biblical illustrations from the lives of Abraham, Moses, Joseph, and others illustrate and reflect how God's time and His purpose came to fruition. They claimed their vision, were faithful to their dream, recognized their destiny and moved into God's appointed place in His Kingdom harvest. Other examples drawn from his own experiences and the lives of contemporary heroes of the faith reinforce the relevance of tenaciously moving toward the dream God gave them. Jentezen Franklin exemplifies the power of words in his writing. He communicates a message of dreaming a specific vision, the process and stages of seeing that dream fulfilled. At the end of each chapter is a quick review, often with suggestions for written assignments. These written exercises help the reader put into action the steps for maintaining their vision, their dream, and for pursuing their destiny. I found these suggestions particularly helpful in zeroing in on my own dream as it relates to fulfilling the destiny God has planned for me. "Believe That You Can" is more than motivational and inspirational. It is anointed. This is a book for anyone who has ever had a "dream" and a primer for those yet to find their personal passion and vision.

It has empowered me while in my process and disarmed the enemy in my life. It has also given me a greater drive to continue to pursue what God has ordained for me. I needed this book!! It blessed me!! Get this book, it will give you strength and patience to endure the necessary steps and stops in pursuit of your God-ordained destiny!!

Real World Application

This is written by a guy that has put into practice everything he discusses in this book. Jentezen Franklin grew up the son of a pastor in a small church in rural North Carolina - a family of very modest means, but a Godly heritage. Through his life, he has learned how to bring the dreams God gives us to fruition - these are dreams that are always bigger than we can do ourselves, dreams that require great faith. If God has given you a passion, or even if you are seeking to discover His purposes for your life, I highly recommend you get this book. It is also very well written and will prove to be a great reference guide that you can go back to as you walk out the dream. Be Blessed in Jesus!
