on fulfilling one's God-given destiny, June 9, 2004
Dr. Wilkinson uses the first two chapters of the Book of Nehemiah to illustrate the process of leadership, its stumbling blocks and tests, and how to accomplish the vision God has put in your heart, and not "wander and squander your life". A brilliant speaker who bases his teachings on sound Biblical principles, there is a lot to be gained from this series of "Sessions", whether you are a business person, a church leader, or self-employed; as a free-lance artist, I obtained a lot of insight from the sage advice in these lessons, which show how to deal with doubt, be aware of your hidden motives, survive rejection, and do "something significant for Him". At the beginning of each segment, Dr. Wilkinson interviews people in all walks of life who have achieved their goals with integrity and passion, along with the peace only the Lord can give when working for His purpose. There are 8 half-hour sessions in this set, ideal for a group study for a small business or church, or any individual wishing to fulfill their destiny, and do it in accordance with God's plan for their life. The topic headers are "The Birth of the Vision", "The Power of the Vision", "The Validation of the Vision", and "The Tests of the Vision", with each topic having 2 sessions apiece. A word of caution: there are gaps between the sessions, so don't stop the tape thinking "it's over" before its time.

I cant enough of this guy!!!, September 16, 2004
This review is from: Bruce Wilkinson: The Vision of the Leader (DVD)
The review below is excellent so I wont go into detail but just highly recommend this DVD. Dr. Wilkinson has a magnificent gift of story telling were he turns words into movies full of faith hope and love. I greatly admire this follower of Christ and teacher of HIS word. I cant get enough of this mans teachings and have ordered all his DVD's. I have found the supplemental works of the Jabez serries exceptional.
This DVD is very informing about the trials and tests to expect when GOD gives you a vision. It also challenges us to persue a Vision from GOD for a work HE wants done on Earth and through you and ONLY through you. I do say catch the Vision and here from your Heavenly Father and trust HIM to finish the work HE has started in you. GOD bless and grow in the Grace and Knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. JB

Excellent Series on Getting a Vision From God Instead of Relying on Yourself to Generate One., August 11, 2006
I checked this series out from a local church library and just recently completed watching the series at home.
In my humble opinion, this is one of the best resources I have seen on getting a vision for your life from God instead of trying to generate one in your own strength.
The series is based on the Book of Nehemiah, chapters 1 and 2. The main subject areas mentioned include:
1. Getting a vision from God (Nehemiah 1:1-11) - God wires us for a specific vision. You must believe that God has a purpose and vision for you.
2. Enduring the vision (Nehemiah 2: 1-10) - Have a godly passion to see the vision come to pass and endure the journey.
3. Tests the vision faces (Nehemiah 2: 11-20) - Rest assured, there will be tests you will face when you act on the vision.
All in all, an excellent series and I highly recommend the product to anyone, ministers, laypeople, business professionals, homemakers, etc. who has a deep desire to hear from God about what His vision is for your life.
Watch and enjoy!
