  Lessons in faith from the life of Daniel What is faith in a post-modern world? In a post 9/11, post Tsunami world? In a post-Christian world? Surrounded by hostility to the idea of truth, can we keep our faith intact and still have a voice? The answer is yes.Just as Daniel resisted assimilation into the ways of Babylon, Gerard Kelly shows how we can survive and even prosper in an alien culture. He looks at the kind of faith we need to make a difference, not dependent on surroundings, but on a strong, vibrant relationship with God, that survives and thrives against opposition and persecution. 'Gerard writes with a wondeful mixture of imagination, grace and conviction. A very compelling read' - Tom Sine, author of Mustard Seed vs McWorld 'Stretch transports the book of Daniel right into the 21st century showing again just how spot on the Bible is for the challenges and pressures of our ever-changing society' - Rob Lacey, actor, broadcaster and author of The Word on the Street (formerly The Street Bible)
