About this episode

Drew Balch discusses the courage of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in the face of conformity and the cost of following God.

Drew Balch - In a world that demands conformity, Daniel 3 confronts us with a stark question: bow or burn? Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego refuse to compromise, even when the cost is a fiery death. Their courage isn’t reckless; it’s rooted in the deep confidence that God can save… and even if he doesn’t, he is still worth trusting. Following God is never meant to be safe, though it is meant to be true. Will we stand, even when it costs us?
