Do you ever wonder if your God-shaped dream might be something He hasn’t yet revealed to you, or questioned why you feel blocked from God’s purpose for your life? Cindy DeBoer and her husband were 12 years into marriage when God put it on their hearts to examine if they were living out the faith they professed. What followed was a season of confession, questions, and a re-making of the life they thought they were called to.

In this conversation, Cindy shares about the gritty yet life-giving journey her family discovered as they began to live truer to their faith. It was one of letting go of the American Dream in exchange for an “unmissionary” experience abroad as they uncovered the better dream God had for their lives.

If you’ve wondered what it looks like to live out a vibrant faith, surrendered to Christ, so you can truly learn how to love God and love others, you’ll enjoy hearing what God did to transform Cindy and her dreams. We talk about: 

  1. The regular practice Cindy and Paul have made of asking the questions, “What am I doing? Why am I doing it? And am I living out what I say I believe?”
  2. How her greatest fears about the impact of this dream on their kids were unfounded,
  3. And the power of living in obedience to what God has put on your heart.
