Daniel 1: confidence, without compromise or confrontation

MY PERSPECTIVE, Gary Damron
In our studies of the patriarchs - leaders in ancient Israel - we began looking to them as examples of faith. What we ultimately found was that their lives and stories were more about God and His faithfulness than they were about Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David or others. Tying that thought with another idea from Revelation - serving God above all others - led to a look at Daniel.
