The course of study is the Old Testament. Personal reading should be those chapters in Jeremiah not covered in this study. The study for the week of Oct. 3 covers Daniel 1-6. Most likely, no one will ever threaten be thrown into a fiery furnace or a den of lions because of their faith in Jesus Christ. But no one gets through this life without a trial of faith.
