The Temptations of Babylon (Sojourners Week 2)

Creekside Community Church of Elizabeth

Welcome to Creekside Community Church's online service! In Week 2 of our "Sojourners" series, we delve into the story of Daniel and his friends as they navigate the temptations of Babylon. Guiding Question: How do you know where to draw the line? Join us as we explore Daniel 1:1-21, where Nebuchadnezzar’s plan to turn young Israelite nobles into Babylonians backfires. Discover how Daniel's discernment and resolve to remain faithful to God offers powerful lessons for us today. Message Highlights: A Case Study in Discernment and Resolve: Learn about the challenges Daniel faced and the theories behind why he refused the king's food and wine. The Point: "Plant your flag on the hills that matter most, not on every rise you see." Application: How to discern with your community where to draw the line in your own life, and why it's important to focus on matters of identity and the source of your blessings. Whether you're joining us live or catching the replay, we pray this message inspires you to stand firm in your faith, even in a world that often challenges your convictions. Don’t be afraid of being weird; be afraid of being irrelevant.
