Daniel P1: Godly Living as a Stranger in the LandNäide

Why do you suppose that God commands them to grow in numbers, settle down and build houses, and plant crops?
What would it mean for these people, who had been taken as captives, driven away from their land and their people, and plopped into Babylon to “seek the prosperity of Babylon”?
We also live in a land that is largely composed of people not following our God. What do you think it looks like for you to seek the prosperity of this place you are living?

About this Plan

How foggy the path ahead must have seemed for Daniel as he and his friends were captive. Marched to a foreign land, given foreign names, told to eat foreign food, and to worship foreign gods. Let's travel with the young Daniel as he negotiates following the One True God in this foreign place. We will see ourselves through his challenges and learn how we too can follow this One True God in our own foreign context.
