You are invited to join us as we consider Daniel’s response to the desperate condition of his country. Over the past few weeks and months many things have happened that have caused people to worry, be concerned, and feel like the nation we grew up in has gone the way of the dinosaur. Yet, despite Daniel’s (a leader in the Bible) nation being in a desperate place, he set an example for us to follow in both his worldview, and his response. This week we’ll consider and practice his responses and his worldview.

Go Your Way

Life is hard and often feels, and is, unfair. We are sometimes challenged about the realities of our belief in the face of loss and tragedy. Did God not know what was going to happen, or is He just leaving us to struggle on our own? The final vision of Daniel gives us some insight into living in a hostile world, and not just surviving, but thriving. Join us as we wrap up this study and consider both the message and messengers that challenged and encouraged Daniel.
The Comfort of a Planner
April 18, 2021 • Mike Waldrop
When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. While it sounds cute the reality is that sometimes life wears you down, feeds your insecurities and fears, and redirects your attention to all that is wrong in the world. When our heads are swimming and distracted, it helps to know there is someone in charge who not only knows how to handle what we’re facing but has a plan to respond. Come join us as we explore the comfort of a planner.
Of Horns and Holy Ones

Politics, politicians, cancel culture, injustice, and cultural trends that make us uncomfortable and yet afraid to speak of seem to characterize much of life. Sometimes it feels that government is much more about who gets their way than about the welfare of people. And it seems that these cycles of ups and downs, of winning and losing in the culture and politics will never end. In the Old Testament book of Daniel the nation of Israel experienced similar ups and downs. Join us in Daniel 7 as we consider the world today, tomorrow, and the world to come.
