King Nebuchadnezzar made a giant gold statue and said, “Everyone must bow down to it!”
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego said, “No! We only worship God.” The angry king threw them into a fiery furnace!
But when the king looked in, he saw FOUR men walking around in the fire! God was with them. They came out without even smelling like smoke!
