The King of Kings: All the King’s Men

“The story of Daniel and his friends is a clarion call to our generation to be courageous; not to lose our nerve and allow the expression of our faith to be diluted and squeezed out of the public space and thus rendered spineless and
ineffective. Their story will also tell us that this objective is not likely to be achieved without cost.”
– John Lennox, Against the Flow

Sermon Text: Daniel 1:1-21

Second Scripture ReadingMark 1:1-8

A Prayer for Today: “Almighty and merciful God, because it is only by your grace that your people who are full of faith can truly and honorably serve you: Grant, we pray you, that we may so faithfully serve you in this life, that we fail not finally to attain your heavenly promises; through the merits of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.”
