Daniel Introduction

DanielSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg discusses the introduction of the book of Daniel from a religious perspective. Daniel was skilled in interpreting dreams and was elevated in rank due to his God-given gifts. Despite living in a pagan world, Daniel remained uncompromised in his convictions, which serves as a model for us to influence the world around us while holding true to our beliefs. Gregg also addresses criticisms of the authenticity of the book of Daniel, and provides evidence for its historical accuracy.
