There’s no introduction or opening paragraph because I certainly did not plan to write about this. It’s 19th April 2022 as I type this up and all I can think is, Holy Spirit where are you leading me, why are you making me write this? You see, it’s 4 years later but I still think…

If God were to interview you for the job of working His Kingdom, would you pass the test? Join us as we study Daniel, one of the few well-known biblical characters about whom nothing negative is written. His life was characterized by faith, prayer, courage, consistency, and lack of compromise.
We’re wishing you all a happy new year on the first of February because we lowkey know January was a trial month right? yes or yes! And NOW that we’re all fully subscribed to the year that is 2019, I bid you welcome…
