It seems that the ruling to ban formal council prayers will be overturned within a week.  But there is a danger in Christians merely looking to Eric Pickles and Baroness Warsi to come to our rescue.

Regarding the ruling over the Bideford Council perhaps we need to ask ourselves ‘What would Daniel Do?’

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
