The Biblical story validates our feelings that things aren't as they ought to be through the literary theme of Exile. Exile speaks to this time and place we live ought to feel like home, and yet somehow doesn’t feel like home in the way it was intended to be, but God has provided a way back home to him. We are taking the next several weeks to walk through the book of Daniel in order to see how to live faithfully in the midst of an exiled era. It begins with having the hope of God and living in his holiness.
