Most of us wake up, shake off a strange dream, and move on with our day. But what if that dream was one of the clearest ways God was trying to reach you?

In this episode, Frances makes the case that dreams are one of the most overlooked channels of communication with God — not just for the prophets and patriarchs of Scripture, but for you, right now. She walks through why dreams bypass our defenses and rationalizations to surface what we're unwilling or unable to face while we're awake, shares her own twenty-year history with dream work (starting in therapy and deepening during her Master of Divinity training), and breaks down the three sources every dream can come from. She also unpacks a real dream she helped interpret — one that turned out to be a warning about a much more ordinary addiction than anyone expected — and gives a practical, repeatable framework for recording, discerning, and praying through your own dreams.

This isn't about becoming a dream expert overnight. It's about paying attention to a language God has been speaking to you in all along.
