Discussion Questions:

  1. How has your idea of “sin” changed over your life? What thoughts or words come to your mind when you hear the word “sin?”

  2. In Daniel’s prayer, he did not say “they” but instead said “we.” Do you find yourself struggling with an “us vs them” attitude? What can we learn from Daniel?

  3. How is your prayer life? What struggles do you have with prayer?

  4. God’s rescue plan is far greater than the captivity. What captivity has God freed you from that when you look back, you can see God’s blessings?

  5. Are you in captivity now that you need rescue from?
