Daniel: Discovering the Courage to Stand for Your Faith

by Sue Edwards

The latest addition to the outstanding Bible study series by expositor and teacher Sue Edwards Since 2007 Sue Edwards’s Bible studies have enlightened, encouraged, and equipped women with meaningful devotion, biblical principles, and timeless life lessons. Now to this updated and enhanced series that has proven so helpful in many new ways, Sue is adding a timely and provocative new study of the book of Daniel. Organized to facilitate either individual or group use, Sue’s studies offer timeless lessons, probing questions, and now include inspirational sidebars and short three- to five-minute supplemental videos. By simply scanning the video QR code or visiting the series website (www.discovertogetherseries.com) students or class facilitators can watch historical and cultural background information, discover pertinent truths found in each week’s lesson, or find thoughtful questions to encourage personalized discussion. In her latest study, Discovering the Courage to Stand for Your Faith , Sue looks at the life and lessons of Daniel and his companions, who, like so many believers today, faced increasingly challenging choices between their love and commitment to God and the often aggressive hostility of the godless culture in which they had been placed. Sue’s intelligent and insightful exposition of the book of Daniel and its historical and cultural setting, combined with her practical and timely instruction in the daily application of the message and lessons of Daniel, make this an indispensable guide to women of faith in our rapidly changing cultural environment.

This truly is a great study. Verse by verse and showing where else in scripture these verses are tied to. I couldn't give it five stars because it is lacking completeness (in my opinion). If we are doing a verse by verse study let's not skip an entire chapter or half of chapters. Had this study actually gone through the entire book of Daniel instead of 90%, it would have been the best in depth study of a book in the Bible I had ever done.

Author Sue Edwards has done a great job of bringing the book of Daniel to life! As a group leader I would have liked a bit more text (instead of QR codes) but aside from that it was an excellent study and my group all agreed that they learned a great deal they didn't know about Daniel.
