Daniel Week 8 Materials - Ch-6: "Daniel in the Lions' Den"



Hi everyone!


Sorry for the delay in getting this out.  All materials and the audio are now available from this past Wednesday's study in chapter 6.

We had a relatively small group due to the weather again, but this study marked the half-way point through the book of Daniel!  If you weren't able to catch it, I encourage you to at least look at the 2 handouts.  The second one in particular presents my own view regarding the symbolism ("typology") of this chapter representing the Crucifixion and Resurrection of Jesus Christ very powerfully. 

IMPORTANT: Remember, next week (7/20), we'll be at our new location - the Grand Oaks apartments clubhouse at 7215 Grand Ritz Ln., Indianapolis, IN 46237

There is a sheet with map, directions, address, etc. in the "Admin" section of the shared drive if you click on the first link above. 

Have a wonderful weekend,

Daniel Week 7 Materials - Chapter-5: The Handwriting on the Wall (The Fall of Babylon)

Howdy!

Thanks to all who were able to make it to our study on Wednesday.

I hope it was an enjoyable lesson, I'm sure it was difficult to tell, but I was really excited about it.  Ha ha.  I really enjoyed putting this one together and teaching it.  I just love how much information we have, both from the Bible as well as outside archeological and literary sources to put together such an incredibly detailed and dramatic picture of the events of that specific night over 2500 years ago!

As usual, the written materials from Wednesday's study (Handouts, Slides, and Teaching Notes) can be found on the shared drive here:

I'm looking forward to next week with our final chapter from the "historical" section of the book with the famous story of "Daniel in the Lion's Den"!

Please remember to be in prayer for all our members and especially those who are wrestling with illnesses, pregnancies, new jobs, and other "life" challenges and opportunities.

"And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose." -- Romans 8:28

Daniel Week 6 Materials (side study): Babylon

Hello everyone;

Thanks to all who were able to make it to our study on Wednesday.  My apologies for taking so long to get these files uploaded, but everything is now available.

I decided to depart from our regular chapter-a-week schedule in order to fit in this important topic.  Babylon (the city) has been a central character in the Book of Daniel from chapter 1 and continues to play an extremely important role in the rest of the book as well as the entire Bible - which could be called a "tale of two cities" with focus on both Jerusalem (the city of God) and Babylon (the city of Man).

Daniel Week 5 Materials - Chapter-4: The King's Testimony

Hello everyone;

I really enjoyed last night's study and fellowship and would like to thank everyone who was able to make it.  The weather was looking a little iffy at the beginning, but the Lord heard a number of prayers that I know were sent up and it turned out to be a beautiful evening.

Our study last night (week 5) brought us to Daniel chapter-4 - a truly amazing chapter actually written by King Nebuchadnezzar himself after what very much appears to be his "conversion". This may be the only chapter in the Old Testament, and possibly, the only chapter in the whole Bible written by a Gentile (non-Jew) - and by none other than King Neb. himself as he comes to know and worship God in a profoundly personal and ... I think ... eternal way.

The materials from last night's study (Handouts, Slides, and Teaching Notes) are now available on the shared drive here:

Daniel Week 4 Materials - Chapter-3: The Fiery Furnace

Hello everyone;

Last night's turn out was really small due to the weather (which was particularly nasty at the time everyone needed to be traveling).  I'm glad everyone stayed safe!  We had a fun time with some worship and studying chapter 3 together.

Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego in the Fiery Furnace is one of those most memorable and colorful Bible stories and a joy to study.  But it's also an important "Type" or prophetic story that points to the events of the Great Tribulation and the End Times where the very same Fourth Man will again rescue His people from the hands of the Antichrist and the attacks of their enemies.

The materials from last night's study (Handouts, Slides, and Teaching Notes) are now available on the shared drive here:

Or through the Facebook page in the Files area here:

The audio will be available in both locations also, but it will be later tonight.

Grace and Peace,

Tim
