About this listen

Join us as we dive into the dramatic opening chapter of Esther, a seemingly secular story where God is notably absent from the text, yet profoundly present in the unfolding events. In this sermon, we'll explore how the lavish feasts, arbitrary decrees, and human machinations of King Xerxes's court set the stage for a divine narrative. We'll grapple with the intriguing tension between God's overarching sovereignty—His purposeful hand guiding even the seemingly chaotic—and the undeniable reality of human free will, as characters make choices with far-reaching consequences. Discover how Esther 1 lays the groundwork for understanding that even in the midst of human folly and political maneuvering, God's ultimate plan is relentlessly, yet subtly, at work.
