We finish our series in Esther by asking what it was all for.

Esther pt 7

Esther pt 6

In our passage today Esther is forced to make a difficult choice, a choice not too dissimilar to the one we must all make.

As we continue to delve into the story of Esther we are faced with a stark reality for God’s people, both then and now.

In Esther chapter 2 we are shown the dark side of the world in which we live and if truth be told, the dark side of our own hearts.

What are the kingdoms of this world like? How do they function? How do they find their priorities? How do they compare to the Kingdom of God? All these are questions we answer in Part 2 of our series in Esther.

We begin our new evening series in the book of Esther with a pen portrait of a king with immence wealth and a great desire to show off his ‘great splendour’. Yet all is not what it seems!
