Host Peter Englert, co‑host Rich Christman, and guest Ron Pierce (Biola professor emeritus) explore why Daniel’s stories— from the lion’s den to the apocalyptic visions of chapters 7‑12—still speak to today’s crises.
- From Sunday school to scholarship: Ron shares how he moved from childhood tales to uncovering Daniel’s Aramaic/Hebrew structure and its prophetic timeline.
- Systematic vs. biblical theology: Why reading Daniel through the eyes of a 6th‑century exile reveals deeper meaning than end‑times speculation.
- Dark night of the soul: Using St. John of the Cross, they trace Daniel’s long “dark night” and its role in spiritual formation.
- Language & canon: The significance of the Aramaic sections and the place of apocryphal additions.
- Aging & hope: Ron, nearing 80, reflects on what Daniel teaches about purpose, suffering, and the promise of resurrection.
Tune in for a hopeful look at how Daniel’s ancient visions can guide us through today’s darkness. 🎧✨
