6-session study
Pluribus and Daniel
Resistance, community, and the self
A six-session study pairing the narrative chapters of Daniel with the themes of Apple TV+'s Pluribus (Vince Gilligan, 2025). Pluribus is not a Christian show, but it is working a deeply biblical question: what makes a person a person, and what is the right shape of human community? Daniel asks the same question from inside a different empire. The sessions are arranged here as a sustained argument moving from small daily dissent to the gospel's vision of unity-with-difference. Each session pairs a Daniel passage with cross-references and discusses the show's themes carefully — no plot spoilers in the questions, so the study works for viewers and non-viewers alike.
