I have a dream!

Daily writing prompt
Write about your dream home.

My dream home is a place where people’s desires, feelings, and decisions don’t define or determine their attitude, words, and behaviors. Instead, they surrender to and are led by the supernatural love and presence of God.My dream home goes far beyond domesticated religion and embraces sacrificial love, heart-to-heart connection, and ongoing obedience to the risen Jesus.

I have a dream 
Of home as a place
Where people replace
Self-seeking focus
With a face-to-face
Relationship with
The living Jesus.


Christ and religion
Are not the same.
One is powerful,
The other tame.

Human analysis

With heart paralysis
Leads people to neglect
To behold and reflect,
To daily ponder
And surrender to,
The life changing wonder
Of the risen Jesus.

"But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord." (2 Corinthians 3:18.)

Jesus Christ is the most exciting reality in the world! It’s sad that church so often presents Him in a boring way. Just because an organization calls itself a church doesn’t mean that it obeys or represents Jesus. Come home to a daily personal relationship with Christ.

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
