    based on 1 rating
     | 4,151 views

    Queen Vashti was expected to behave in a way contrary to conscience and she refused the king's command. Her refusal was the right decision to make, but it cost her dearly. Living upright will not always gain one the favor of the world.

    The Defiance of the Queen Esther 1: 10-22 As we consider our text today, we must do so in light of the preceding verses. King Ahasuerus had thrown a six month long party, culminating with a seven day finale. He had provided an elaborate escapade for all the princes and servants within the ...read more

    How Christ Gives Meaning to All Aspects of History Illustration:If God did not bless, not one hair, not a solitary wisp of straw, would grow; but there would be an end of everything. At the same time God wants me to take this stance: I would have nothing whatever if I did not plow and sow. God ...read more

    As the literal translation informs us, the Hebrew sense of the moving of God’s Spirit upon the face of the waters is understood as the Spirit fluttering as with wings, over the waters.

    Mystery has become something of an endangered animal in our world, and the tragic result is that we have become inoculated against awe and resistant to a sense of wonder.

    Stars Psalm 19:1-4 Albert Einstein once said: “The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed.” One ...read more
