The last half of the story in Daniel 3 remains one of the most popular parts of the Old Testament. Pastor Isaiah explains some of the details that help give us a proper picture of what took place and then shows us from Scripture how the gift of God's presence with us is actually far more significant than most of us realize day by day.

From one of the two most famous passages in the Book of Daniel, Pastor Isaiah preaches about the God who alone is worthy of worship and the challenge for us to understand and reject all temptations to worship idols in our lives.

While King Nebuchadnezzar made an impossible demand for the wise men of Babylon, God proved His power by revealing the answers to His servant, Daniel. Pastor Isaiah preaches from the account in Daniel 2:24-49 and challenges us to consider how we view and live in light of our God, the Revealer of Mysteries.

When King Nebuchadnezzar makes an impossible demand, and his wrath is felt by the Babylonian wise men, Daniel and his friends continue to walk in faith. Pastor Isaiah explains the way the example of these men should challenge us to act in faith in our lives today, too.

The radical changes that came upon God's people in the Babylonian exile were first experienced by four young men who were taken captive to serve in Nebuchadnezzar's court. Pastor Isaiah explains some of the initial challenges they faced and how false promises of provision still form the basis of so many temptations for us today, too.

Turning back over 2,600 years, we focus on a pivotal moment in the history of the people of God. Pastor Isaiah helps us understand the context and situation surrounding the Babylonian Exile and this powerful Old Testament Book from the pen of Daniel. Drawing the connections to today, we marvel at the God who is just as active here and now as He was in Israel and Babylon all those years ago.

Concluding the story of Daniel and the Lion's Den, Pastor Isaiah proclaims the great power of God to rescue His servant! While Darius's remorse and regret still left him powerless to fix the past, the God of Daniel is the all-power Rescuer & Deliverer!

As we enter the new year, we look at the importance of prayer through a familiar story in Daniel 6. Pastor Isaiah examines the consistency and commitment in Daniel and challenges us to consider our own lives and ask God to grow us too!

In our final gathering of 2023, Pastor Isaiah sets our focus on the Second Coming of Christ and His Future Advent that Christians eagerly long for. Hearing Jesus speak of this great day from Matthew 25 serves to motivate and challenge us to live intentionally to the glory of God knowing that He sees and will speak to all that we do in this life.

On Christmas Eve Day, Pastor Isaiah proclaims the incrediable reality and signifiance of the fact that God entered into this human world in the Incarnation. This central belief of our faith challenges and moves us to worship, especially, but not just, at Christmas time!
