October 2, 2016 by Kathy Cooper 1 Comment

Drawing from her own study of Daniel, the knowledge gained while serving as a teaching assistant  for Prof.  Iain Provan's Regent College course on Daniel, and the insights gained through talks Carl Ellis gave at an InterVarsity conference, Kathy Cooper has compiled study notes for InterVarsity groups exploring Daniel.

They are ordinary and … [Read more...] about Reasons: Why I am a Christian Part 2
