Beyond The Dream with Erica J. Fields

There is a space between where you are and what God has shown you next.

For some people, that gap looks like being at the beginning; still dreaming, still planning, still trying to figure out how to start.

For others, the gap looks like success on the outside and stretching on the inside. You may have built the business, raised the family, earned the degree, led the team, grown the platform, or accomplished things you once prayed for, and still sense that God is calling you into more.

In this episode of Beyond The Dream, Erica J. Fields talks about “the gap,” the space between what God has already done and what He is preparing you to carry next.

This is for the dreamer, the builder, the leader, the entrepreneur, the creative, and the believer who is grateful for where they are, but honest enough to admit they are still becoming.

The gap does not mean you are behind.
The gap does not mean the dream is dead.
The gap may be the place where God is building the person who can carry what comes next.

In this episode, we’ll talk about:

• Why the gap looks different for everyone
• How to recognize what God may be forming in you
• Why success does not always erase the tension of becoming
• How to steward the season you are in while preparing for what is next
• One faithful step you can take toward the more God has shown you

If you have ever felt the tension between gratitude for what God has done and hunger for what He is calling you into, this episode is for you.

Here, we are not just talking about dreaming. We are talking about healing, building, becoming, obeying God, and learning how to steward the life, calling, and assignment He placed in our hands.
