Today we start our new series on the book of Daniel! This series was requested by one of our congregational kiddo's who loves the stories in Daniel - so we're diving in! Today we look at the background of what took God's people into Babylon (2 Kings 24) and a story of faithfulness to God in Daniel 1. We end by asking the question "No matter how much I like it, can I seek the peace and wellbeing of the people and place in which I am planted in a way that honors God?"

We're in Daniel 2 today! This series was requested by one of our congregational kiddo's who loves the stories in Daniel - so we're diving in! This morning we're looking at the story of a King named Nebuchadnezzar who had a dream that he didn't understand and how God, through Daniel, was able to interpret the dream and save the wide men of Babylon from the King's decree. Join us to learn more!

We continue in the teaching series on Daniel that was requested by one of our congregational kiddos. Today we’re exploring the passage of Daniel 3 where we find that the main character(s) shift from Daniel to his friends and their extraordinary faith as they follow Jeremiah’s instructions in his letter in chapter 29 to stand up to the allure of the false idols of Babylon and the King’s anger literally burns against them. Watch as God remains faithful to them! Join us to learn more!

We continue in the teaching series on Daniel that was requested by one of our congregational kiddos. Today we’re exploring the passage of Daniel 4 & 5 and the idea of pride as we look at two different stories about two different kings and how they reacted to God's call upon them. We're especially thankful to have Rev. Dale Ressler guide us through the chapters this morning.

We continue in our "Adventures in Babylon" series on the book of Daniel and today we dive into chapter 6: the infamous story of Daniel and the Lions Den! It's really easy to think that we've heard this all before but let's jump into this with humility and remember that God can give us fresh eyes and a fresh heart as we encounter brand new things in the text. For instance, it might shift your perspective to consider that Daniel was 70-80 years old in this story! Join us to learn more.

Today we continue in our "Adventures in Babylon" series on the book of Daniel. This morning we're combining chapters 7 & 8 - two dreams that Daniel had and by looking at both of these we get an understanding of them that we wouldn't otherwise. We're going to be making connections within the book of Daniel and across scripture to Jeremiah, Isaiah, Genesis an Acts. Lastly, we'll leave you with a hopeful picture of the gospel message! Join us to learn more.

We’re closing in on the end of the book of Daniel and this week we find ourselves in Daniel 10. This chapter builds upon some of the discoveries we made in our teaching on chapters 7 & 8 as we find Daniel deep in prayer but his answer delayed - but why? Tune in today to learn more about Daniel’s perspective on the world, spiritual warfare and we’ll dive in to Ephesians 6 to learn more about our response to spiritual warfare.

Today is our final day in the book of Daniel...that's right - its our wrap up! Daniel 11 & 12 - today is the explanation of the vision that caused Daniel so much strife in chapter 10. And to really understand what we're reading we're looking back in history and also into the future. Daniel 11 & 12 presents us with such an interesting and compelling look into the future that should encourage us to consider how to apply it to our lives especially since the Angel tells Daniel that it is meant for a time in the future. Is that us? Tune in to find out!
