At one time when an individual wanted a direct, personal experience
of God that person turned to his or her dreams. The early third
century Christian defender of the faith, Tertullian, observed, "Is
it not known to all people that the dream is the most usual way
that God reveals himself to man?" Yet by the eleventh century, King
William II of England states, "They are not good Christians that
regard dreams." Why did this reversal of opinion occur, not only in
Christian thinking, but in Jewish and Islamic attitudes also? God
and Dreams: Is There a Connection? traces the historic connection
between God and dreams and examines why this shift happened. While
particular attention is given to Jewish, Christian, and Islamic
thought, several secular disciplines are discussed also. After
investigating the different points of view, an argument is made
that the connection between God and dreams still exists.
