Resources on Daniel

As we begin a five-week series on the first part of Daniel together, below are some recommended resources for adults, kids, and teens.

One book we want to highlight is for children and it will be available for purchase at our Resources area in the lobby. Jesus and the Lions' Den by Alison Mitchell not only teaches kids about God's faithfulness and the role of prayer in one of the most famous stories in the book of Daniel, but it also helps us see how this story ultimately points us to Jesus. Pick up your copy at the Resources area or online.
