Using the metaphor of the eagle from the Bible, Jamie Buckingham describes in detail some of the hidden facts associated with the truths of those who "mount up like eagles." He talks about the "ruach" (breath) Holy Spirit of God in Psalm 51 and compares it with the "pneuma" of the New Testament. He describes how the wind of God takes one to heights beyond one's natural ability. The eagle loses control in the current and is swept up to levels where he is controlled by forces beyond self. Buckingham advices, "lock your wings and let God do the rest."Chapter 8 is devoted to God given dreams. He writes, "All great men have had their dreams, for dreams are the stuff of which life is made. Take the dreamers out of our civilization, and the entire structure of history tumbles to the ground." A Christian's motivation is tied to his gifts. This book is for dreamers who want to soar! I highly recommend it!
