Daniel Award Recipients
An Award of Prestige
The Daniel Award for Courageous Public Faith is given to an individual who has courageously stood for Jesus Christ and His truths within his or her sphere of influence. The name is derived from the Old Testament example of Daniel and his willingness to defy an unjust decree and continue in public prayer.
Now when Daniel learned that the decree had been published, he went home to his upstairs room where the windows opened toward Jerusalem. Three times a day he got down on his knees and prayed, giving thanks to his God, just as he had done before.
— Daniel 6:10
