Your hosts, Mike and Meg, are back for another episode where we go deeper than the Sunday sermon—this time with Pastor Cathleen Parks! In her message on February 4, 2024, Cathleen focused on what it can look like to STAND FIRM. Drawing from the book of Daniel in the Bible, we unpack chapter 3 in this episode, which lays out the experience of Daniel's friends (named Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego by King Nebuchadnezzar) who refused to bow to a golden idol that the king made of himself.
We discuss what global issues Christians are faced with standing firm about, and what it looks like to stand firm IN LOVE. Some topics discussed: abortion, living together and relations pre-marriage, examples and testimonies of "standing firm," and a rundown on Daniel 3.
The Sunday sermon we are referencing—titled "Standing Firm" by Pastor Cathleen Parks—is linked here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WF8TTqz_c4U&t=0s
