The first time the Bible reader meets the prophet Daniel in the book of Daniel chapter one, he is serving King Nebuchadnezzar during Israel’s Babylonian exile. We learn quickly that Daniel is a man of integrity and no compromise when he refuses to eat from the king’s table because the foreign foods did not align with Jewish Kosher guidelines. Pastor Ed teaches us today that Christians are called to live lives of integrity and nonconformity to the world no matter the social situation or cultural pressures.
