- How do Christians live in a North American culture that is, at best, indifferent to our faith, and, at worst, hostile toward it? The Old Testament prophet Daniel experienced many of the unchanged realities that we face today: rising political temperatures, egotistical leaders, disorienting visions of glory. Using a reference from your field of study or personal experience, describe how Christians can demonstrate through both word and deed that God is in control and calls us to faithfully bear witness to God's now-but-not-yet kingdom.
