Hey everybody, I'd like to welcome you to Pastor Rick's Daily Hope. And today, we're starting a new series called Unshakeable. In this series, Pastor Rick is going to take us through the Book of Daniel. That's going to equip us to handle whatever life throws at us, even the most difficult trials. Hey, before we get started, I'm very excited

because I want to let you know about Rick's new book, The Daily Hope Devotional,

365 days of purpose, peace, and promise. Please tell your friends and family about it. It's now

available at your favorite bookstores. Go grab your copy

today. Okay, here's part one of a message called When Your World is Shaken Up. Folks, today it seems

you are doomed if you called evil good and called good evil.

Destruction is certain when you call darkness light and light darkness.

When right is considered wrong and what's wrong is considered right, when you claim what is bitter is now sweet and what is sweet you now call bitter.

He said, you're going to collapse.

That culture is not going to last.

That, my friends, actually happened 2,600 years ago to the nation of Israel.

And that nation had fallen into immorality and into injustice and into idolatry.

Any of those sound familiar?

Idolizing things that aren't God,

treating people unjustly and unfairly, and immorality.

And there were a bunch of guys of that day.
