God’s Great Dream: Discover the Sacred Thread Binding the Whole Bible Together into One Epic Story, From Genesis to Revelation, and How You Can Be a Part of It by Zach Duke Book Review





In God’s Great Dream, Zach Duke has written his very first book discussing the sacred thread that God has provided for us in His written Word. His family, coaches, and mentors helped him to have a real and deep relationship with Christ. It all changed when he met Joshua Rolf who worked alongside him at his church. He helped him to understand how the scriptures were all woven together. He explained beginning in Genesis how God created man in His own image and how He made us male and female. We are the only thing that God made in His image and we are like Him. The animals or plants were not. He shared how we have a connection and a responsibility to participate in God’s plan and His mission. He instructed to be fruitful and multiply. Zach takes the approach a little differently. We need to look at not just as a command to reproduce. What if instead God is more after having quality fruit and representing Christ in the world. God’s glory needs to be our focus and to spread it all and touch other lives in His image. Adam and Eve were instructed to fill the earth and to show God’s image to the entire world. He shared how we should ask ourselves two questions to discover God’s dream and work effectively at our purpose. He explored how each scripture takes us on a journey of blessing and they are woven together throughout the whole Bible. He discussed also the blessing of Noah, rebellion, Abraham, and all the way to Revelations and how we can find out God’s dream for us. 

 

 

 

I would recommend this awesome book discussing God’s dream for us and His glory. It was very life changing to read about his incredible approach on God’s image and how we can be a disciple and represent God in the world. I liked how he broke down the sacred thread starting at Genesis and going all the way to Revelations. I liked how he looked at the distinctive blessings throughout the passages of scriptures. I appreciated how he encouraged readers to actively engage and be a part of His story and learn to be immediate, radical, and follow the costly obedience.
