Eight Session, Video-Driven Reading Plan taught by Prestonwood Women's Minister Tasha Calvert.

The book of Esther is set during the period of exile when God's people are scattered across the Persian empire. As nefarious men plot against the Jews, Esther reminds us that even in dark days God is providentially guiding and protecting His people.

Are you fighting anxiety and wishing you could see your next steps more clearly?

In this 10-part devotional, Pastor Dylan Dodson teaches through the book of Esther. This plan will encourage you to trust in God’s providence, even when you can’t see him working.

Surrender is giving up control and giving in to God’s control. It’s not a passive move but an active release. When you stop trying to make things happen your way and trust God, circumstances will work out according to His plan. This 10-day plan gives examples of biblical greats who surrendered what they couldn’t control, released it, and trusted God in the face of many uncertainties.

The book of Esther reminds us that God is working in all circumstances to accomplish His purposes. But Esther didn’t just sit by and let God sort out the details. This reading plan teaches how God’s faithfulness actually gives His people the freedom to live faithfully, trusting that their good deeds will not be in vain as God’s plan unfolds. A humble faith is the foundation of godly courage.

There are times in our lives when God is working behind the scenes, but we don't see Him nor feel His presence. The book of Esther doesn't mention the name of God, but He was directing every step of her story. Join us as we travel back to the Persian empire to learn about Esther, Mordecai, and their amazing story of faith in uncertain times. You'll be encouraged to trust God's plan for your life, even when you don't see Him!

In this plan, we will take you through the book of Esther. We can admire Esther's courage, but we should see the whole picture: Esther, too, needed to be reminded of Who rules and that her life is in His hand. We pray that Esther's story inspires you to see God's hand in your life. God has intentionally placed you where you are for such a time as this.

As Carolyn Lacey takes us through these 30 undated readings you’ll discover that although God’s name is absent from Esther, He is very much present directing the events that take place for the good of His people. Read through these devotions and be encouraged that even when we feel that God is absent, He is still sovereign, in control and loves His people more actively than we often imagine.

In this 30-day study, we'll unpack the Book of Esther and see the hidden hand of God at work in this incredible story. Read about the deliverance of God, the justice of God, the sovereignty of God, and how He equips and positions people to accomplish His perfect purposes and plans.
