When King Nebuchadnezzar builds an image for his empire to worship, Daniel’s three friends are confronted with a terrible choice: do we risk our lives and remain faithful to the One True God or do we bow down to the image? Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego choose faithfulness and through their obedience God reveals that He alone is powerful to save, and still, His deliverance does not always come in the way that we might think.
