6.14.20- When We’re Far Away From Normal

This week we are starting a six-week sermon series on the book of Daniel. 

Life was changing fast for Daniel and his friends.  Everything was different, and nothing was the same.  King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon had destroyed the kingdom of Judah and exiled some of their brightest and best to his country.  How would they make the best of it?  How would they react well?

"There's Another in the Fire" explores all of this and more...we will see from these chapters in Daniel that the LORD is always with us, without fail, through any and every situation!  

Scriptures to read during this episode....

Daniel 1:1-7 Far Away from Normal? There's Another in the Fire  When life is changing fast, often not by choice, this never changes: the LORD is with you wherever you go.

Philippians 4:8-13 Far Away from Normal? There's Another in the Fire When you're dealing with a new normal, the LORD gives you strength! Think about him most of all. And you can be content in any and every situation.

Matthew 6:24-34 Far Away from Normal? There's Another in the Fire New normal? You cannot serve both God and Money. Ever. Instead, seek first God's kingdom!

Daniel 1:8-21 (sermon verses) Far Away from Normal? There's Another in the Fire  Daniel was far away from home.  He easily could have told himself that everything was wrong and nothing was right.  But he SET HIS MIND to serve the Lord alone.  And the Lord blessed him.

Some hymns we sang this week that you might want to check out....I'm But A Stranger Here, When Peace Like A River, and a new one called "Consider How the Birds Above."
