Richard wraps up the Homesick series this week when he covers Daniel 10-12. In these chapters, a messenger comes to Daniel and gives him answers to the prayers and visions he has had throughout the book. We see that Daniel has been heard from day one, though there was some delay in getting the answer […]
Richard takes us back to Daniel 8 for this week’s message. Daniel receives a vision that he does not understand, so Gabriel is sent to decipher and explain it to Daniel. Richard pulls out a a portion to focus on, specifically around the destruction that occurs in the vision and the havoc that follows. Sinful […]
Nathanael continues in the Homesick series this week in Richard’s absence. We jump to Daniel 9 to look at the prayer that Daniel prays. As we explore this prayer, Nathanael draws out three application points for us as Christians to apply to our prayer lives.
Richard continues in Daniel 7 in the Homesick series where we start to get into Daniel’s visions.

This week we are in Daniel 2 where King Nebuchadnezzar has a dream that needs to be interpreted, but does not tell of the dream. Only Daniel is able to tell the king what the dream was and what it meant. The dream detailed many kingdoms that were established and their ultimate fates. Daniel used […]
