Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego: A Legacy of Faith

Daniel 3:1-18

October 28, 2018 • Sunder Krishnan

Even in the midst of insurmountable odds their response “Our God is able….but if not…”defines what worship really is: a conviction that shapes all of life’s choices so as to declare to everyone who might be aware that God is our ultimate good.

Free though locked in chains, wise in the age of folly, unflinching in the face of a lion, influencer of kings and kingdoms, steadfast through fiery trials, empowered by the spirit of God. Daniel: Thriving in Exile

More from Daniel

Us, Daniel, and the Lions’ Den

December 2, 2018 • Jon Thompson

In the lions’ den, Daniel shows us the power of prayer and necessity of Spiritual disciplines, He prayed knowing God is in control, God is with him, God can change the situation or help him though it. Daniel is a model for us as we encounter the lions’ den in all aspects of our lives. Free though locked in chains, wise in the age of folly, unflinching in the face of a lion, influencer of kings and kingdoms, steadfast through fiery trials, empowered by the spirit of God. Daniel - Thriving in Exile.

The Writing on the Wall

November 25, 2018 • Jon Thompson

We are truly living between two kings and the church is Daniel. Our families, friends, neighbours, our nation has not fully yet decided which we they will go, but we are to be Daniel to Nebuchadnezzar and Belsharazzar. We are not at the time of final judgement, the writing is not not yet on the wall, we do not yet know if the days are numbered. And so we personally and we as a church get to be Daniel to all our neighbours, friends, family, neighbourhoods, to Durham, to the GTA and Canada. Free though locked in chains, wise in the age of folly, unflinching in the face of a lion, influencer of kings and kingdoms, steadfast through fiery trials, empowered by the spirit of God. Daniel - Thriving in Exile.

Salt, Light and The Great Humbling

November 18, 2018 • Jon Thompson

Should we be hanging out with all sorts of people and not worry about what people think and say? This story in Daniel says yes - be salt and light. Association does not mean agreement, it means you are there to show them light. The only rule is if you cannot handle a person and situation because you might go back into sin then don’t. See how Daniel's presence over time humbled a King. Free though locked in chains, wise in the age of folly, unflinching in the face of a lion, influencer of kings and kingdoms, steadfast through fiery trials, empowered by the spirit of God. Daniel - Thriving in Exile.
