About this listen

Hey kiddos! 👋 Ever wonder where the phrase “the writing’s on the wall” comes from? Well today you’re going to find out! 🖍️

In this episode, we meet a brand-new king named Belshazzar who throws a huge party with golden cups from God’s temple. Suddenly, a mysterious hand appears and writes glowing words on the wall! 😱

Belshazzar is terrified (so terrified he even… well… let’s just say his royal pants weren’t so royal anymore 💩). None of the wise men can figure it out, but Daniel steps in with God’s wisdom. The message? You’ll have to listen to find out!

Podcast Questions:

  1.    What was the name of the new king?

  2.    What three rewards did the king want to give Daniel for interpreting the writing?

  3.   At the end of the chapter, who took over as king?

Remember, you can submit your answers here, for a chance to win a prize!
