Esther's people are in peril and the only way to rescue them is by placing her own life in harm's way. Most people tend to struggle with confrontation especially when the stakes are so high. However, the time has come for the Queen to confront the King. Join us as we learn about Esther's confrontation in Chapter 7 and how we might become bold in our own faith through her example.
Part 7 | The Courage of Esther

Part 9 | The Reversal Realized
March 12, 2023 • Pastor Kevin Timmons • Esther 9, Esther 10
In the final chapters of Esther, the reversal of the Jews' fate is realized. They defeat their enemies and inaugurate the feast of Purim. Throughout the entire story Esther and Mordecai have had moments where they've shined. But they also have had moments where they've fallen short. Throughout it all, God's providence has been on display and pointed us to the great reversal we experience through Christ's death and resurrection: Salvation from sin and death.
Part 8 | Esther as Mediator
March 5, 2023 • Pastor Travis Marsh • Esther 8
Jesus extends his grace and mercy to all who reach out to him. He is our mediator between life and death. In Jesus we have life, life abundant. Esther is in a position of being a mediator in Chapter 8. She is in the position of protecting God’s people from certain death and giving them an opportunity for life. Join us as we learn about the importance of Jesus as our mediator through the example of Esther.
Part 6 | God Works in the Background
February 19, 2023 • Pastor Travis Marsh • Esther 6
Often God is at work in your life and you might not even know it. He is ordering and reordering according to his plan. Sometimes this can be frustrating and overwhelming until you get the fuller picture of his work. Join us this Sunday as we continue in our series in the book of Esther. We will see in Chapter 6 how the God who is not mentioned once by name is ever-present and in full view.
