Discover the Purpose Behind Dreams from God

Practically all the popular dream books on the market are written from Hindu, New Age, and/or parapsychology viewpoints. In contrast, Understanding Dreams from God was written to present a worldview that affirms the historicity and authority of the Torah, Psalms, and Gospels. These holy writings acknowledge that God has used dreams and visions to communicate with humanity. They have much to say about supernatural revelation, dream interpretations, purposes and limits of dreams, false dreams, and the spirit world.
