In Daniel 3 we dig into the famous story of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego as they defy King Nebuchadnezzar and find themselves in a fiery furnace heated to 7 times the normal intensity.  We talk about idolatry, and how easy it is for us to find ourselves in idolatry, and how similar it looks to what King Nebuchadnezzar did - even when it's on a much smaller scale.  We also examine what our 3 heroes were going through as they prepared for this moment - what is behind the text - because they were serving in leadership for the many years this statue was being built and they knew what was coming.  We can learn so much from this story about how we can go through times in the furnace and how a similar choice to chill in the fire with God can allow us to come out unsinged and not smelling like smoke.  There is so much more to this story than we find in the Children's Bible where so many of us first encountered it.

Join us as we learn what went into Daniel being given the knowledge of King Nebuchadnezzar's dream - what it was and what it meant.  There are so many things for us to learn from Daniel about prophecy vs knowledge and so many other things.  

Join us as we start our study of the book of Daniel!

Elihu calls everyone out in this section of Job and it is a humbling experience to consider our own lives. Yes, we can shake our fist at God and still be called righteous - but when we know God one would hope we are growing in our faith so that we know there is no reason to shake our fist at Him!

Thank you for joining us on this very emotional and inspiring journey through the book of Job. We hope you have learned things about God, doctrine, yourself, and how to handle struggles and others coming at you with bad theology.  I know we have discussed feeling inspired to show ever greater compassion when those around us are suffering, and are encouraged to know that everyone coming at us with "correction" isn't supposed to be listened to - their words must be taken captive to the Word of God.

In this section Job offers his closing argument for the accusations made against him.  It's beautiful to think of how highly he was esteemed and how far he fell simply because he was going through a struggle.  This can be a hard section because you are left with the understanding "it happened to him and it can happen to me" but if we don't read this before it happens to us we can miss out on the encouragement that you find when you go through these seasons and can reassure yourself, "It happened to Job - God still loves me and I'm going to be okay."

In this week's study we explore more of the condemnation that comes upon believers when we struggle and others are uncomfortable with it. We also are introduced to the doctrine of "we're all just worms" and see that it does not come from proper doctrine.  That is good news indeed!
