The Giant of Conformity - Daniel 1:5-16 - Skip Heitzig

There are giants in the land, both moral and spiritual, and we need courage to confront them! Truth is, the world around us is not at all sympathetic to the Christian cause. In fact, they would like nothing more than to silence us and make us conform to their standards. As our Lord said, “The world would love you as one of its own if you belonged to it, but you are no longer part of the world. I chose you to come out of the world, so it hates you” (John 15:19, NLT). Daniel and his three friends were pressured to conform, but they refused. Let’s find out the source of their strength to make such a courageous stand. This teaching is from the series Hunting Giants with Skip Heitzig from Calvary Church. 00:00 Introduction 07:50 The Predicament 17:35 The Protest 26:28 The Petition 34:38 The Payoff
