Here are some “sound bites” from Sunday morning’s sermon, “Fireproof Faith” based on Daniel 3:13-31:
- Hannaniah, Mishael, and Azariah were faced with obedience to God or compromise to save their hide.
- Rather than compromise, they trusted God to save them.
- They had decided that even IF God chose to not save them, they weren’t going to bow to the idol.
- We won’t typically face those types of decisions because we will have already compromised.
- We face the decision between obedience and compromise a hundred times a day.
- We must be faithful to God and trust His way.

Here are some “sound bites” from Sunday morning’s sermon, “Standing Firm” based on Daniel 1:1-21:
- Sometimes we are tempted to compromise based on our circumstances.
- Once we compromise, we will have to fight it for the rest of our lives.
- If we stand firm and do not compromise, we may have to face the consequences.
- If we don’t stand firm and compromise, we will have to face God.
- Who are you trying to please?

Here are some “sound bites” from Sunday morning’s sermon, “The Two Questions” based on Exodus 2:11-15:
- When faced with temptation, we can ask ourselves two questions to help us work through it.
- The first question is, “Am I willing for others to see me do this?”
- The second is, “Am I going to have to cover this up after I finish?”
- It is easier to resist the first desire than to satisfy all that follow.
- What we do when no one is looking tells us a lot about our character.
- We should “resist the devil”.
- We should “flee immorality”.
