- Title:
- Thomas G. Long - "The Living Out of Dreams" (June 24, 1990)
- Description:
-
There are several interpretations regarding the importance of the story of Jacob's Ladder in Genesis. This sermon argues that the key idea from that story is found in the image of the angels ascending and descening on the ladder. This signifies that, not only are we able to communicate with God, but God communicates with us, and that communication is what transforms us. (Abstract created by Duke Divinity School staff.)
Sermon start time: (Part 1) 22:11. Sermon end time: (Part 1) 43:39.
Key quotation: “Even our best dreams can only lead us, but they cannot transform us…Jacob may have a dream, but the God in his dream has him and will not let him go until he is transformed.”
