Daniel - What Am I Supposed to Do?

The Old Testament tells the story of a teenage boy named Daniel who was taken captive and forced to serve the Babylonian King. I am sure Daniel wondered more than once, What am I supposed to do? What am I supposed to do when I find myself in a foreign land where I don't understand the language, culture, or customs?  


It is not that different from the way many of us feel. This is a truly unique time and feels like a foreign land. We have new words like social distancing and COVID-19. Our culture is changing as schools and restaurants close. We even have new customs, just try and shake a stranger's hand.


It is a new reality that has many asking, "What am I supposed to do?" Considering everything happening in our world, we decided to change direction on Sunday and look at the life of Daniel. Through his life, we can learn what to do when we find ourselves in a strange land.
