ESTHER – GOD BEHIND THE SCENES – BEAUTY AND THE BEAST – ESTHER 2:1-18
July 28, 2024
Sermon from July 28, 2024 by Pastor Bill Walker of Unity Bible Church, Lewiston, ME. This is our series on Esther “God Behind the Scenes.” This message from Esther 2:1-18 was entitled “Beauty and the Beast.”
In this message we meet the main characters of our drama, Mordecai and Esther. Sadly, these exiled Jews are unremarkable and irreligious people caught up with and in the greater culture of Persia… Chapter 2 is a very difficult story to read with understanding – it should leave us stunned, sickened and saddened – but it is the stuff of life and books and Hollywood… embraced, accepted and romanticized by our world. The real lesson here for the people of God is, are we disgusted or are we unmoved… accustomed… assimilated by the culture too?
At Unity Bible Church, our vision is to see God glorified through our worship of Him, building up believers, and sharing the Good News of Christ.
