Esther Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 3, 2022

Mordecai, Esther's uncle, offended a high court official called Haman, who decided to kill not only Mordecai but all the Jews in the Persian empire. Esther turned the tables on Mordecai. She pleaded with the King, and Haman was punished – hanged on the very gallows he had built for Mordecai.

The story of Esther centers around Queen Vashti, King Ahasuerus, Esther, Mordecai, Haman, and the Jewish people. If you are not already familiar with these individuals, they have been briefly introduced to us in the following paragraphs. Who was Esther? 1. Queen Vashti disobeyed the drunken orders ...read more

Satan’s Limitations: Satan Is Not Omnipresent Series

Contributed by Jenny Franklin on Sep 12, 2022

Job 1-2 reveals Satan’s limitations. Satan is not God’s equal opposite. Satan isn’t omnipresent (everywhere), omnipotent (all-powerful) or omniscient (all-knowing). This session’s focus - Satan isn’t God’s Equal, Satan isn’t Omnipresent.

**************** Job 1-2 gives us some remarkable information about Satan. Job reminds me of Revelation in that the scenes go back and forth between spiritual and physical. In both books of the Bible, we see scenes in the spiritual realm in Heaven and the resulting physical ramifications on ...read more

Grievous Mourning In Persia Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Apr 14, 2021

The Jews were condemned and needed someone to intercede on their behalf before the king. All are born in a body of flesh, prone to sin, separated and condemned before God. Our only hope was for someone to provide deliverance for us and intercede on our behalf.

Grievous Mourning in Persia Esther 4: 1-9 As we continue our study in Esther, the tension and anxiety continue to increase for the Jews in captivity. Haman’s hatred for Mordecai prompted him to persuade Ahasuerus to sign a decree calling for the complete annihilation of the Jewish population ...read more

Sermon # 22 - Find Your Strength In God Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on May 23, 2025

Through all the trial and hardships that came to David, he persevered because he found strength in the Lord and walked in His ways. If we too can recall God’s faithfulness and pray fervently, there will be nothing we need fear, because the Lord will stand by us to deliver us from all our troubles.

It’s the story of a beautiful Jewish girl named Esther, and of the King of Persia named Xerxes (Ahasuerus) who fell in love with her and made her his queen. But from that point on… the story gets complicated. King Xerxes has a trusted ...read more
