In the previous message we dove into the book of Esther by unpacking chapter 1 together. In some ways that chapter reads like something that happened long, long ago in a kingdom far, far away, but in other ways it seemed ripped right out of today’s headlines and our own life experience. There was much more to explore in the chapter than we had time last message, but I am grateful for our small group ministries providing a place for folks to dig deeper into some of the ideas that the chapter introduced.

In this message we continue our study of this gripping narrative as we head into chapter 2 where we will be introduced to the title character of our book, Esther, and her Uncle Mordecai. I’m looking forward to seeing what God has to say to us as we worship Him through the study of His Word.
