How do we live faithfully in a world that feels increasingly like Babylon?

In this session, we dive deep into the Book of Daniel to discover its true purpose and historical context. Spanning from the first deportation in 605 BC to the third year of Cyrus the Great, Daniel’s life serves as a blueprint for the believer living outside the "Promised Land."

In this lesson, you will learn:

The Chronology of Daniel: Why Daniel begins before Ezekiel but ends after him, and how to track the three Babylonian deportations.

Faithfulness in Exile: How Daniel and his friends rose to influence in pagan courts without compromising their devotion to Yahweh.

The Sovereignty of God: A look at how God humbles kings like Nebuchadnezzar and Belshazzar to prove He alone rules the kingdoms of men.

A Divided Book: Understanding the transition from the Stories of Daniel (Chapters 1–6) to the Visions of Daniel(Chapters 7–12).

Whether you are a student of the Old Testament or a believer looking for encouragement in a secular culture, this study shows that God has not abandoned His people in exile. He is the God who interprets dreams, shuts the mouths of lions, and holds the future in His hands.

Key Topics: Exilic Prophecy, Reformed Theology, Covenant Faithfulness, Babylonian History, The Sovereignty of God.
