My Dreams are Not For Sale

from The Leader’s Notebook with Dr. Mark Rutland · host Dr. Mark Rutland

In this episode of The Leader’s Notebook (Ep. 311), I explore the power and persistence of the dreams God places within us. From Genesis 37, we see Joseph’s dreams challenged, misunderstood, and opposed—even by family—yet God’s plan moved forward in His timing. Dreams from God are not for sale; they are gifts to nurture, share, and hold fast to, even when life takes us through pits, prisons, or unexpected detours. I share personal stories from my own journey, from schooldays to university leadership, and the impact of encouragers who helped dreams flourish. This message will inspire you to trust God’s timing, hold tightly to your vision, and embrace the adventure of seeing God bring your dreams to life in ways beyond imagination. – Dr. Mark Rutland Chapters (00:00:03) - The Leaders Notebook(00:00:25) - Joseph's Dreams Are Not For Sale(00:04:03) - Dr. Martin Luther King's Dream(00:08:50) - Dreams of the United Methodist Church(00:13:36) - The Greatest Dream Encourager of All Time(00:19:06) - Dreams of Others(00:23:14) - God speaks to us in dreams(00:28:21) - Dreams of Mine(00:32:42) - The scar on a girl's face(00:37:55) - God Prays for Strugg(00:41:36) - Leader's Notebook
