Anything bold you do in life requires an element of risk. People might not understand what you’re doing, or openly disagree. You might not know if it’s all going to work out- there’s risk involved.

But anything worth doing is worth taking those risks. The question is, what will you do with the uncertainty? Where will you put your trust and faith?

As pastor and author Mike Todd says, “That dream God has given you might seem crazy right now, but what seems crazy in one season will be counted as faith in another.”

This week we invited Mike Todd, the lead pastor of Transformation Church in Tulsa, OK on to the Dream Big Podcast. Mike and his wife, Natalie, are highly sought after speakers and leaders that have ministered and spoken in many churches and events, both domestically and internationally, all while leading Transformation Church where they reach over 5,000 people in physical attendance and over 20,000 people live online every week. Pastor Michael and Natalie live in Tulsa with four beautiful children—Isabella, Michael Jr., Ava, and Gia Todd.

It's always difficult this time of year to grasp how quickly the days move along. It seems like just a few weeks ago summer was winding down and school was starting. Now, we find ourselves suddenly thrust into a fast-paced race to the finish line.

But, there's another reality happening just under the surface. It's the season of Advent, and we can easily miss it.

What is Advent all about? With the temptation to get wrapped up in gift-buying, relatives to visit, and year-end work responsibilities, the primary invitation God gives us is to recognize and interact with his presence. He is doing something new, right now, in your everyday life.

INTRODUCING ADVENT WITH BOB GOFF

So, this year, we put together a unique digital course called Advent with Bob Goff. What is it?

Nine teaching videos with Bob through two themes: Expectant and Presence

Guided meditations and reflection questions you can use for personal reflection or as a discussion guide with your friends or family

Come to Dream Big with Bob Goff at the Oaks

Also, we have two Dream Big live workshops coming up in December and January. Join Bob Goff at The Oaks December 6-8 for a three-day experience and bring your dreams along! What better way to prepare for the new year than to prioritize your dreams, set some goals, and make them a reality. Your dream might seem ridiculous, but not here. The bigger your dreams are, the better.

The Dream Big framework is Bob's personal outline to dream execution in a straightforward 7-step approach. You'll spend 3 days hearing from Bob's experiences and collaboration with a tight-knit collective of other dreamers like you. During the sessions, Bob will help you stop hitting the wall and repeating the same mistakes when trying to start your dream. He'll come alongside and show you how to make room in your everyday life to make your goals happen.

The recipe for success pairs Bob’s expertise with an intimate, small group setting where your dream will get focused attention and a tangible action plan. As a result, space is limited so reserve your spot...
