The story of Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah does not end with them getting big and strong, but their bonds to God and each other are tested for the rest of their lives. In this episode, Matt and Tim talk about how important it is to see that one victory does not lead to ease. The decisions parents make now will slowly build their children into who they are as adults, and this must be done with diligence and skill through obedience to God's Word.

When the prophet Daniel was being raised, there is a chance his parents did not consider he would be taken into a foreign culture. In this episode, Tim and Matt talk about the real possibility that kids are being raised in an equally hostile culture like Babylon's. Parents should decide in their hearts to swim against the current of culture and look for others doing the same with the intent to pass this lesson on to their kids. It will get awkward at times, but believers must obey God rather than man.

Here we are. At the end of the Sermon on the Mount. Jesus has talk a lot about how believers are supposed to live, and Matt and Tim have added some commentary about one of Jesus's most memorable speeches. When families build upon the rock of God's Word, they create an environment for children to develop into adults who can face the many challenges of the world with confidence. Now that you have heard the words of Jesus, what do you need to deal with to build a firm foundation?
