City of Rebels Jan 10, 2021 - His homeland was conquered, his dreams were shattered, his name was changed. Life as he knew it was over. Forced to live in a godless and morally decaying society Daniel faced the fear of an uncertain future, constantly dealt with concern for his life and safety and the world around him seemed to fall apart at warp speed. Yet, he faced all of these challenges with hope, humility and wisdom. He didn’t just face these challenges, he thrived in the midst of them and in doing so changed an empire. Daniel knew that even in “Sin City”, God is in control. In This Series A Test of Faith Jan 17, 2021 | Chad Moore & Robert Watson A faith that has never been tested cannot really be trusted. The Bible teaches that the testing of our faith is a good thing that produces growth and endurance. How should we handle the testing of our faith? Should we fight a culture that is godless? Should we flee a culture that is godless? No, the Bible teaches that we should engage. We don’t curse the darkness, nor do we run from it. We live and proclaim the light. The Story of Daniel Jan 10, 2021 | Chad Moore People familiar with the Book of Daniel tend to think of it as an adventure book where the good guys always win, or as a detailed prophetic account of the future. Neither one is totally accurate. It includes adventure and some prophecy, but that’s not the main lesson. The Book of Daniel is about how to follow God in a culture that is Godless. His faith, hope, humility and wisdom are what set him apart. Bad things happen to good people all the time. It’s what we choose to do in those moments that makes the difference.
