How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord is laid for your faith in his excellent word.

Today's a great day to study God's word.

Every day is a great day to study God's word.

I'm Steve Sweats and I'm so glad that you're here

as we make our way through the Bible with our founder and teacher, the late Dr. J. Vernon

McGee. We're on a five-year journey from Genesis to Revelation and this is our first study in the Old Testament

book of Daniel.

Now in just a few minutes we're going to hear Dr. McGee called Daniel one of the most

thrilling books of the Bible.

How is that for a teaser? We'll start with an overview of what we'll learn

over the next six weeks as the Bible bus takes us chapter by chapter through the book that's

half biography and half prophecy. So if you're new to the program

you'll want to know that you can get Dr. McGee's notes and outlines for each

study for free. To get your copy visit TTB.org and search for briefing the Bible or you can download our app and those

notes are available there.

And back to our digital book of Dr. McGee's notes and outlines, we have that for every

study of all 66 books of the Bible. It's available as a PDF for a free download or you

can call us at 1-865 Bible and we'll put an abridged paperback copy in the

mail to you. Now before we start let's hear a letter from a fellow Bible bus passenger.

She doesn't tell us her name or where she lives, but she does share some very personal thoughts

on what God's word means to her in a difficult season.

Listen to her letter.
