    Esther, Pt. 1

    OUT OF THE ASHES (ESTHER 1) I have little to no interest in crossword puzzles or any other kind of puzzles; it sure is a puzzle why people bother, but it is a sight to see crossword puzzle fans patiently working on the latest puzzle in their newspaper and to see how they cannot get enough of it. ...read more

    The challenge Esther received is found in Esther 4:14 and it may very well be the challenge that our Savior has for you at this point in your life.

    Why are you positioned where you are? Why do you work where you work? Why do you live where you live? Why do you go to school where you go to school? Why do you go to church where you go to church? You do what you do because God has assigned you there - and here – “for such at time as ...read more

    Preaching in the book of Esther

    Introduction: This book shows the Provident Hand of Almighty God on behalf of His People. This is seen in the entire book. The Lord’s name is never mentioned in this book.

    We all know how heroic Esther was but we forget about the stand Vashti took

    He was half in the bag when it all began. His name was Xerxes and he was the King of Persia. If we pull up a map here we discover that Persia is located in this area making it modern day Iran. However we are told that when this story happened Xerxes kingdom stretched from India, which is up here ...read more
