How can we remain faithful to our God in a world that rejects him?nIs it even worth standing firm, when his kingdom often seems so very far away?nAnd is it possible to be a blessing to our nations, and show the power and goodness of God, in our day?Those are pressing questions for us in a time when living as a Christian increasingly means being misunderstood, maligned and even mistreated. And since this is the context in which Daniel found himself, the book that bears his name will reassure, challenge and thrill us as we read it today.In these seven studies you will see Daniel and his friends seek to remain faithful in a foreign land; and then you will watch and listen in on a series of visions Daniel received, outlining how God would bring his people home, to live in his kingdom and under his king.nLet the book of Daniel show you what you can expect from this life, and how you can and must stay strong in a hostile world.
