Podcast 163 -- Daniel 6:1-28 Thrown to the Lions

Daniel continues praying daily to God in defiance of Darius the Mede’s order, and is tossed to the lions, a sentence that seems to trouble Darius much more than Daniel. We talk about the pressure Christian men face—in the workplace and in their social circles—not simply to keep silent and tolerate, but to openly affirm cultural beliefs that run counter to their own or face loss of job, friends and reputation. Daniel is an honest, hard-working servant to his imperial masters, yet he retains his religious integrity and faithful spirit throughout all his trials. What are the takeaways for ourselves?On the panel: Michael Cropper (“The Judge”), Robert Cocheu (“The Professor”), Steve Titch ("The Gambler") and Kyle Trahan (“The Deacon”).
