The Lion’s Den and Faithfulness - Daniel Study - Chapter 7
Ever feel like you are in a lion’s den where hungry lions are ready to tear you limb from limb? In your den, you may have people trying to get rid of you, make you look bad, make up false accusations about your character, question your every decision, or make a mockery of your faith. If there is a job best-suited for a lion’s den, it is coaching. If anyone in the Bible can feel your pain, it is Daniel. He was in the lion’s den because he was such a good leader and others were jealous of his success. His adversaries despised his success and his God, so they formed a plot to have him eliminated.
Extreme Pictionary
Needs: Game Leader (to tell drawers what to draw and to give a point for each correct guess); a whiteboard and markers
Fast-Paced Game:
Divide the group into 2+ teams, each with a team name. One member from each time goes up to the board, and the game leader whispers in each drawer's ear the same thing to draw.
Ready, Set, Draw! Without talking, each "artist" does his best to get his team to guess what he is drawing.
When the answer is shouted out, that round ends and the next round begins immediately! Anybody can run up to the board and start drawing for his/her team.
The team with the most points at the end of the game wins. (Optional: Award candy to the winning team.)
Keep the energy high and the music going.
Physical Activity Level:

Harlem to Honolulu
It takes the average frequent flyer 12 months to travel enough miles to qualify for Southwest Airlines’ companion pass. Les and Chris Steckel only needed eight.
In their first year of ministry, the FCA President and “First Lady” were on the road as many days as a typical person spends in an office during an entire calendar year. But it wasn’t without purpose. Both Les and Chris knew they were called to spend that time immersing themselves in the FCA field, learning from and building relationships with staff across the country.
Case Keenum Video Devotion Series – Part I
Set:
After leading the nation in total offense and passing yards per game last season, University of Houston quarterback Case Keenum was all set to lead the Cougars to another great run in 2010. That all changed, however, when in just their third game Keenum suffered a season-ending knee injury that forced him to the sideline for his senior season. As a man of faith, the injury forced Keenum to rely on the Lord in new ways and to fully trust in the Lord’s ultimate plan.

Big Me, Little Team
Set:
I’ll never forget standing in the locker room with my Division 1 field hockey players and listening to their postgame chatter. I was their new assistant coach, we had just lost our first game, and I was anxious to see how they were doing.
Session 5: Power Up
How Do I Walk In The Power Of The Spirit?
READY
As athletes, many factors play into our success on the court or field of competition. Fitness, nutrition, rest, proper attitude, and mental focus are just some of the less visible factors that determine how we’ll perform. Even though these things are not as visible as skills training or weight training, they play a vital role in being game ready.

Summary
Jake was looking at Roger’s blog and realized how alone Roger felt. As he reads the blog it flashes back to how Roger felt about his life at school. Roger talks through his pain and struggle of why he felt so hopeless and alone.
Verse
“My eyes are always on the LORD, for He will pull my feet out of the net. Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am alone and afflicted. The distresses of my heart increase; bring me out of my sufferings.” - Psalms 25:15-17
Discussion Questions
-
Many students in your school have felt like Roger did. What are some of the warning signs you can look for?
Session 2: The Final Buzzer
How Can I Experience Eternal Life?
READY
Time is always a major factor. We live in a world of 60-minute games, 30-second time-outs, 3-second lane violations, 2-minute warnings, and other time crunchers like having 2 outs and 2 strikes in the bottom of the 9th inning.
-
Describe a situation when time played a role in the outcome of a competition. What adjustments were you or your team forced to make as the clock ran down?
-
List three emotions that you’ve felt when under pressure. What impact did those emotions have on your ability to perform?

What's My Role In The Great Commission?
READY
With pride, we look back on past accomplishments. It will be even more fulfilling to look back at the end of the journey and know for sure that our lives counted for something big.
- How do you think it would feel to be accepted into the Hall of Fame for your sport?
Read Hebrews 11:30-39 for God’s Faith Hall of Fame.
If we allow fear—fear of change, the unknown, failure, ridicule, not following the crowd, our own inadequacies, or dozens of other things—to set the course for our lives, we’ll miss many rich, fulfilling opportunities. God has a spot in His Faith Hall of Fame waiting for you.
Just One Word – Part 2
Set:
In yesterday’s Impact Play, we talked about the value of a one-word theme for the year. Now, if you are like me, you have done your fair share of year-end goal-setting, but, as time goes by, you begin to feel guilty as you fall short of the goals. For me, I got so frustrated at one point with the whole process of resolutions that I boycotted the whole idea and avoided setting any goals at all. That didn’t work either. Instead, I just felt guilty about being the slacker who didn't set any goals. In both cases, I always wound up feeling defeated.
