Daniel

The innocent Daniel was condemned to death in a pit of lions, but the Angel of the Lord intervened to save him! Very early in the morning of the third day, God raised Daniel up from the pit of death to sit at the right hand of the king! Is this a hero story about Daniel? Or does this story anticipate the resurrection of an even Greater Hero to come?

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.

Study the book of Daniel with theStory. There is nothing quite like the book of Daniel anywhere else in the Bible. Half of it is taken up with stories about Jews in Babylonian and Persian courts, the other half with dreams and visions. This 2 week Book Study of Daniel covers chapters 1-9 (the last 3 chapters are really hard for devotional reflection - but you’ll see on day 14 we give suggestions for further study).

Daniel P2: Serving Only God

Through a series of dramatic visions, Daniel prophesies that ‘one like a son of man’ is coming from heaven to establish God’s kingdom on earth.

Daniel contains a feast of treasures to inspire and help us in our discipleship.
