How a God-given Dream Changed the World Race

Samantha Cook had a dream on the World Race that changed the way she lived her life on the Race. Dreams are one of my favorite inventions from God. Truly, how creative was He to decide that we should experience entirely different worlds while we sleep?! I’ve been pretty blessed with a vivid dream life, from nightly lucid dreams as a child to experiencing life after death (yes, I’ve died and gone to heaven twice in my dreams—ask me about it sometime!).  A couple months ago, on my orange sleeping pad in the sweltering heat of Cambodia, I had a dream that has stuck with me.

This is the story that resulted from having the boldness to follow God, no matter where it called her.  Teresa did The World Race, and this is what her life looks like now. The World Race was just the beginning and a lifetime of God adventures awaits. Apply for the World Race and see what God can do with you.
