In this kickoff to our Following the Life of Jesus series, we zoom out and set the stage by going all the way back to Daniel 2. Before we ever meet Jesus in the New Testament, God was already weaving the story together—faithfully, intentionally, and in ways no one could have imagined.

We unpack King Nebuchadnezzar’s dream and show how it unfolds exactly as God said it would during the 400 years of “silence” between the Old and New Testaments. Even when it looked like God wasn’t speaking, He was still moving. Still preparing. Still making a way for the arrival of Jesus and the future spread of the gospel.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re waiting on God, this episode is a reminder that He’s working in the waiting. We hope you walk away encouraged, strengthened, and fired up to dig deeper into God’s Word as we begin this journey through the life of Jesus.
