224: Darius’s Decree vs. Daniel’s Prayer: The Lions’ Den w/ Matt Hepner

Daniel 6—aka the lions’ den chapter—comes alive in this straight-Bible study with Matt Hepner (The Standard Coffee Shop). We unpack Darius’s decree, why Daniel kept praying with the windows open, and what “an excellent spirit” really means for believers now. We also kick around Sabbath vs. Sunday, law vs. grace, and how Daniel’s public courage maps onto modern power games.In this episode:

• Daniel 6: the setup, the trap, the lions’ den, and the king’s sleepless night
  
  
• “Excellent spirit” = spirit-led life (not vibes or emotions)
  
  
• Sabbath/rest, feast days, and Christian freedom (Col 2)
  
  
• Medes & Persians: why Darius’s law “couldn’t be changed”
  
  
• Aftermath: Darius’s new decree honoring Daniel’s God (and why that matters)
