Shownotes

In Daniel 1 God delivers His people into Nebuchadnezzar's hands, leading to their seventy year exile in Babylon. It's a strange place for God to deliver His people, especially since God's sovereign work is always aimed towards the redemption of His people. Why then would God lead His people into exile in a godless, idolatrous, corrupt, and evil nation? It's there that Daniel and three of his closest friends - Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah demonstrate that it's possible to live in Babylon, serve in the king's court, and yet belong to Yahweh, alone. Today, every Christian, no matter where they find themselves, are living in exile. And we, too, can live inside foreign empires, serve in various spaces, and still belong to God, alone. But how? What does this kind of faithfulness look like and require of us? Daniel shows us the way.
