Often this world seems like a nightmare. Human trafficking, young
girls trapped in brothels, child soldiers forced to become killers,
unchecked plagues and diseases, economic injustice and the
oppression of the poor. Millions around the world are trapped in
this nightmare, and we may feel helpless to do anything about it.
But God has a dream. York Moore paints a vivid picture of how the
dream of God is breaking into history to make all things new.
Through the death and resurrection of Jesus, God is bringing an end
to the world's nightmare of sin and death. Scripture's vision of
Jesus' end-time work shows how the wrongs will be made right, and
God's just judgment is good news for the world. Unpacking how the
Bible describes the last things, Moore shows how we can partner
with God as he brings his dream to reality. Every time a well is
dug for a community, food is provided for the hungry or sex
traffickers are brought to justice, the dream begins to take hold.
This is no mere wishful thinking. The dream of God is more real
than your dreams could ever imagine. It is what we were created
for. So wake up from the nightmare and join in what God is doing in
the world. And flourish as your own dreams are transformed by God's
dream for all creation.
