Esther (Part Two): The Bachelor, Medo-Persian Edition

September 11, 2020 by kreig

As the study of the book of Esther continues, we examine Mordecai’s and Esther’s entrances into the story. Xerxes loses a war, Esther enters the ancient world version of The Bachelor, and Mordecai saves the king’s life. Taking a fresh look at this part of the story, you’ll find that Mordecai and Esther weren’t particularly “good Hebrews” in the sense of obeying the commands and instructions set forth in the Jewish law by God. But in spite of their hidden faith and questionable morals, God set them both in prominent positions for greater plans. God doesn’t create evil or sin, but when humanity errs, He works through/in spite of those events to bring about ultimate Good.

1 John Overview: Confidence in Christ
by Curt & Kreig

Season 3 of the podcast starts with a brand new study through the letters of John the Apostle. As we look at 1 John, we talk about the overarching theme of assurance of salvation and how that confidence shapes our walk with Jesus. John wrote this first letter in a very unusual format, which can make it seem hard to follow and understand. But over the course of our study, we’ll see how John’s unique style emphasizes and elevates his message about confidence in the person and the work of Jesus Christ.

We also talk about how light and darkness are not a balance, but two opposing forces and that leads into talking about Star Wars, naturally. Light spoilers for episodes 1-7 of WandaVision also happen, so you’ve been warned!
