The Book of Daniel


"The book of Daniel is one of the most amazing biographies in the Bible, one of the most amazing biographies in history.  His ascendancy to a position of power in the Persian Empire defies political science, but it defines the power of prayer circles.  Prayer invites God into the equation, and when that happens, all bets are off.  It doesn’t matter whether it’s the locker room, the boardroom, or the classroom.  It doesn’t matter whether you practice law or medicine or music.  It doesn’t matter who you are or what you do.  If you stop, drop, and pray, then you never know where you’ll go, what you’ll do, orwho you’ll meet. The irony is that it was prayer that got Daniel into trouble and it was prayer that got Daniel out of trouble. "
