J-Curve | Awakening to Contentment | Week 8 13.08.2025

The final stage of the J-curve is contentment. After Daniel was taken out of the lions' den, he experienced a season of peace and prosperity. But after King Cyrus took the throne, Daniel had to once again go through another J-curve of trial and tribulation to gain the king’s favor. In this lesson, we'll learn how every J-curve is linked to another J-curve, so we must always be spirituall...

J-Curve | Limelight to Awakening | Week 7 05.08.2025

After Daniel’s miracle, he became famous in Persia. It would have been so easy for Daniel to accept his new fame, but he refused it and gave all the credit to God.

J-Curve | Miracle to Limelight | Week 6 29.07.2025

After he was brought out of the pit, Daniel had every right to be bitter toward Darius and his fellow countrymen who didn't come to his defense.

In this lesson, we'll learn how to forgive others when they offend us. *** Welcome, we are so glad you have...

J-Curve | Inadequacy to Miracle | Week 5 29.07.2025

When we witness a miracle, we often try to downplay what God has done. But when Daniel was miraculously delivered from the lions, he praised God before he was even taken out of the pit.

In this lesson, we'll learn about the power of praise and th...

J-Curve | Loneliness to Inadequacy | Week 4 15.07.2025

Daniel’s worst fear became reality when it was time for him to be thrown into the lions' den. This is the lowest stage of the J curve.

In this lesson, we'll learn how God leads us into the impossible so that He can do the impossible. *** Welcome, we are so glad you have joined us...

J-Curve | Fright to Loneliness | Week 3 10.07.2025

Daniel wasn’t the only Yahweh worshipper working for Darius. Other Jewish young men were enslaved with Daniel and served in the high court of Nebuchadnezzar and most likely in Darius' court as well. But after Darius had made the decree that no one could pray to anyone but him, there was no one other than Daniel who continued the sacred duty of praying towards Jerusalem for Israel. We know tha...

J Curve | Contentment To Backlash | Week 1 22.06.2025

( Daniel 5:17-30 ) Nothing wrong with contentment, in fact it’s a scriptural command to be content in life for it keeps us from chasing after things we shouldn’t. With that said, contentment can also be problematic, especially when it causes us to settle when God doesn’t want us to settle. As great as it was for Daniel to be favored by Nebuchadnezzar, God had more in store for Daniel while in exil...
