In an election year, how do you live when you feel like you don’t fit in? It can be easy to resist and complain. And yet. In the ancient book of Daniel we find a people who are a long way from home, in Babylon. But, how they live changes everything for them, and for the people they live amongst.
“By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down. Yeah, we wept, when we remembered Zion” (Boney M)
“Undeserved kindness changes things.” (Heather Holdsworth)
