Lay Member Leads Daniel Seminar

CLINTON, ARK. – I had the profound privilege of facilitating a 32-lesson Daniel seminar through Seminars Unlimited at the Clinton Seventh-day Adventist Church.

It was a lovely location for the study, and I witnessed more than theological growth; I saw personal transformation. Attendees bonded over scripture, supported one another and often lingered after the sessions to ask questions or offer insights. Several expressed how this seminar rekindled their love for the Bible and gave them the tools to study with family or even to consider leading their own small groups.

This seminar became a spiritual pilgrimage for each participant. Together, we dove deep into the prophecies and life lessons found in the book of Daniel, discovering not only God’s control over the rise and fall of nations, but His care for each of us individually.

By God’s grace, five participants completed all 32 lessons, faithfully attending and engaging with the material week after week. One young man (7-years-old) studied separately with my wife, Dorcas, and was learning scriptures by faith. He didn’t just listen passively but absorbed the Word with sincerity and curiosity.

Graduation day was a joyful celebration as each participant received their certificates, knowing they had not only completed a series but had begun a new chapter in their spiritual journey, better equipped to “shine like the brightness of the heavens” and “lead many to righteousness,” (Daniel 12:3).

To anyone considering facilitating a Daniel Seminar, I encourage you to step forward in faith. Seminars Unlimited provides excellent materials, support and a Christ-focused structure that makes even complex topics accessible and engaging. Whether your group is large or small, the Holy Spirit will work through the message, just as He did in ours. Let’s find new ways to study our Savior’s promises of a soon return.
