In one of the most familiar stories in the Bible, Daniel's faith collides with his culture and he gets thrown into a lion's den. He intentionally practiced civil disobedience because King Darius required the entire empire to pray only to the king. But when Daniel refused the king's edict and prayed only to God, he faced the consequences of a lions' den. However, God miraculously shut the mouths of lions and delivered Daniel. Daniel serves as an example to us of five important characteristics that should mark our lives in a day when our culture collides with our faith as well.
