At Home in Babylon

How do you remain faithful when the culture around you is trying to reshape you? In Daniel 1, four young exiles are given new names, a new education, and a new way of life—but they refuse to forget who they are and Whose they are. Daniel shows us how to live in Babylon without letting Babylon live in us.

Scripture: Daniel 1
