Servant or Self-Serving? The Choice at the Heart of Esther
Have you ever looked at your life and asked, "God, where are you in this?" Maybe you feel surrounded by chaos with no sign of His hand moving. In this episode, I take you deep into the book of Esther, adding history I researched myself that most people have never heard, so you can see the full picture of what was really happening behind the scenes with Vashti, Esther, Mordecai, and Haman. My hope is that by the end, you'll walk away understanding that wherever God has placed you, whatever influence you carry, you are there for a reason, and He wants to know what you'll do with it.
Three reasons to listen:
1 - Understand the influence you carry, at home, at work, anywhere.
2 - Get the real history behind Esther that reframes the whole story.
3 - Take a hard look at your own heart posture.
