Sermon Discussion Questions
1.  Daniel showcases faithfulness in exile. Where is God calling you to faithful obedience, even if it costs you comfort, approval, or security?
2.  How does the reality of God’s control over human history affect your fear or hope regarding current events?
3.  Daniel reveals that kingdoms rise and fall, but God’s kingdom endures forever. How should the certainty of Christ’s everlasting kingdom shape the way you live, pray, and endure suffering today?
4.  How would you describe the book of Daniel in a short sentence or two? Why do God’s people need this book of the Bible? How has it brought encouragement to you so that you might have hope? (Romans 15:4)
