Description
In this episode, Sam and Jake discuss yesterday’s sermon from Daniel 10-11:1 — we saw in the text that we have to be in awe of God to be at peace in this world. We unpack the main points from the sermon and go beyond yesterday with additional insight into the text.
Daniel expected the end of exile to mean the rebuilding of Jerusalem, but God revealed something far bigger—the coming of a Messiah who would end sin, establish righteousness, and fulfill every promise. In Daniel 10-11:1, we see how God redirected Daniel’s hope and how He still calls us to lift our eyes from earthly fixes to eternal realities. We see how misplaced hope drains faith, how Christ redefines fulfillment, and how God’s sovereignty in prophecy fuels trust in every season.
