Right Start Radio With Pastor Jim Custer

Are you a prisoner, or a preacher? That may depend on your point of view! Even a captive can be a missionary. Paul and Barnabas found that stone dungeon walls provide great acoustics! Daniel, in the Old Testament, was another ambassador-in-chains, as it were. And he would "speak truth to power" to a degree that very few human beings ever get the chance to do. We'll look at his first big opportunity, today. Here's Jim with Part 1 of, Daniel Gets a Snapshot of History.

Daniel was looking up! If this young exile from Judah had looked back, he would have seen only smoke rising from the ruins of his homeland. If he had looked at what was immediately around him he would have seen enticements of prestige and power. But Daniel, as I say, looked up. And he saw things that others did not see. Where are our eyes focused today? Pastor Jim will help us see more details as he concludes his sermon, The Times of Daniel.

The people of Judah wouldn't obey God, but they wouldn't submit to Nebuchadnezzar, either! A powerful earthly king and the King of Heaven would both say, "Enough!" to this troublesome lot. It was a time of total calamity. Well, not quite "total." As we saw with the Flood of Noah, God's pattern is redemption in the midst of destruction. Here's Jim with more of, The Times of Daniel.

Daniel was different. Daniel was different than the pagans around him in Babylon; different than the unfaithful members of his own tribe and nation; different, even, than the other men that God called "righteous." Today we begin a series exploring The Righteousness that Distinguished Daniel. Jim will start by setting the scene, helping us understand what it must have been like to go through the fall of a nation, and then exile. It's a scene that may start to look familiar to us. Let's pray. Listen to Right Start Radio every Monday through Friday on WCVX 1160AM (Cincinnati, OH) at 9:30am, WHKC 91.5FM (Columbus, OH) at 5:00pm, WRFD 880AM (Columbus, OH) at 9:00am.

Some might call this the "butterfly effect." Tiny actions can trigger larger effects, and we may end up with conditions that no one could have predicted. The end result in Genesis 9 is a curse on a whole group of people - the Canaanites, who would eventually oppose the Israelites. The cause is a seemingly minor lapse in judgment by an adult, in the privacy of his own tent. Here's Jim with the rest of the sermon we started on Friday, called, Noah - Righteous, but Human.
