I Dream of Jesus

An archive of dreams, told by the people who dreamed them.

All over the world, people dream of Jesus — the devout and the doubtful, children and grandmothers, people who haven’t thought about him in years. Sometimes he speaks. Sometimes he says nothing at all. This is a quiet place to keep those dreams, exactly as they were dreamed.

The Dream Book

In the live archive, every dream is written by the person who dreamed it, in their own word. Search, or browse by the moments people remember most.

Share Your Dream

Please tell us the dream itself — even a few lines. That’s the only part we can’t do without.

About This Archive

I Dream of Jesus is an archive, not a church and not a debate. We don’t verify these dreams and we don’t interpret them — dreamers of every faith and no faith have reported them for as long as people have kept records, and we think the dreams themselves, in the dreamers’ own words, are worth keeping.

A few simple guidelines keep this a place people trust with something personal:

Terms of Use

  1. An independent project. I Dream of Jesus is an independent, non-denominational project operated by the Operator. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or speaking for any church, denomination, ministry, or religious organization.
  2. Personal stories, told as personal stories. Every dream here is a contributor’s own experience, in their own words, presented as a personal account. The Operator does not verify, confirm, interpret, or endorse the theological, historical, or factual claims a dream may contain — what a dream meant belongs to the person who dreamed it.
  3. Not professional advice. Nothing on this site is pastoral counseling, theological direction, or medical, mental-health, or other professional advice, and reading a dream here is no substitute for any of those. If you are in distress, please reach out to a trusted professional, counselor, or someone close to you.
  4. Submissions. By submitting a dream, you confirm that it is your own personal account, that you are 18 or older (or that you are submitting with a parent or guardian’s permission), and that you grant the Operator a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to publish, display, excerpt, and archive your submission in The Dream Book, where it is saved and can be read by anyone who visits. The Operator may decline a submission, edit it for length or clarity, anonymize it, or remove it at any time, at its sole discretion, and is under no obligation to publish anything submitted. You keep ownership of your words, subject to that license. No payment is offered for submissions. The same courtesy extends to reader reflections shared under a dream: by sharing a reflection, you grant the Operator the same license in it, and the Operator reserves the right to review any reflection, and to decline, edit, or remove it at any time, at its sole discretion and without obligation to publish it.
  5. Privacy. The archive never asks for email addresses, and collects no personal details beyond what you choose to share in your dream and to display alongside it — the name or initials you sign with, your age when you dreamed it, and where in the world you were, only if you write them. A dream you ask us to publish appears in The Dream Book under the name you chose, or anonymously if you chose that instead. We also count visits and reads with anonymous website statistics (Google Analytics) so we can understand which dreams and corners of the archive people love; these statistics are not used for advertising, and no advertising trackers are placed on this site.
  6. Intellectual property. The domain idreamofjesus.com, and this site’s design, text, and arrangement, are owned by the Operator. Contributor content remains the property of its contributors. If you believe something published here infringes your rights, please contact the Operator and we will review it and remove it where appropriate.
  7. Provided as it is. This site is offered “as is,” without warranties of any kind. To the extent permitted by law, the Operator is not liable for anyone’s reliance on contributor content — the dreams here are personal accounts, offered in that spirit and best read in it.
  8. Kindness is the house rule. Submissions should be respectful: no preaching, no debating, no harassment of other dreamers. The Operator may remove anything that breaks these guidelines.
