Dreams That Die and Live Again: Veggie Tales Creator and the Shunammite Woman"Seven years ago my dream died and I discovered once all the noise faded away what I had been missing all along. The impact that God has planned for us does not occur when we are pursuing impact. It occurs when we are pursuing God." -Phil Vischer (Lisle, IL)—Phil Vischer, creator of the immensely popular Veggie Tales films, has a cautionary tale to tell. Dreams, he says, sometimes die. And when they do, it might just be that God is doing us a favor.
After Vischer's bankruptcy, his mother reportedly gave him a recording of a sermon about the Shunammite woman in 2 Kings 4, in which her son—who was the "dream" God gave her—dies. Subsequently, the woman sought out Elisha who came and placed himself over the boy, prayed to God, and the boy was resurrected. In conclusion, Vischer says, "I have no idea what my business strategy will be in two years, and that is OK because God does. So, let go of ego. Let go of outcomes and put your plans in God's hands and let Him direct your steps."
