The Old Testament is “chocked full” of great stories of fascinating characters and dramatic events.  However, it is important to recognize that the Bible is not just another story-book, but that, in fact, the “stories” it contains are not fictional stories, but they are the record of things that really happened.  Time and time again the veracity and authenticity of the record have been supported by archaeological discoveries over the centuries.

One of the most exciting and intriguing “stories” in the Old Testament is found in the fourth chapter of the Book of Daniel which is the first-hand account by Babylon’s greatest king, Nebuchadnezzar, of an astounding event in his life and reign.  

The story is that of how one who could correctly be called a pride-filled narcissist was brought low in order that he might become a humble worshipper of the One True God.

And so, in the third episode of this series, “When Worlds Collide:  Studies in the Book of Daniel,” we consider this fascinating and ultra-dramatic story, an episode entitled, “How the Mighty Has Fallen!”
