{Video} Esther 2: The Hidden Significance in Esther becoming Queen!
Hey Reader, Do you ever feel like the only Christian in your workplace, classroom, sports team, or ministry? The only one truly living for God's glory while surrounded by compromise? If so, I have a special word of encouragement for you today from the book of Esther. In today's Bible Study video on Esther Chapter 2, we see how God positioned Esther as the only Jewish woman in the king's harem. And it wasn't by accident - God had a kingdom assignment that only she could fulfill in that role. I pray this word lights a fire in you to embrace your anointing as "the only one" for such a time as this. Dig into the study now, and let's talk more in the comments about what this looks like practically! Before you go, be sure to grab the Esther Bible Study Guide below to enhance your personal study time and pull out the specific revelation God has for you in this powerful book.
Remember, all that time spent as "the only one" is preparation for promotion. Persevere in character and obedience - your "for such a time as this" moment is coming! P.s. Are you in the Cleveland, Ohio area and ready to explore the Bible with me? I’d love for you to join me this October for a 4-week series as we dive into my new book, Taking the 5 Leaps, and study God’s Word TOGETHER! We'll gather every Saturday at 11:00 a.m. LIVE at Church on the North Coast (Valley View Campus), walk through powerful principles and gain life-changing insights.It's going to be an amazing time of connection, growth, and fresh revelation from God. Register HERE.

Reader, This is it. Psalms 97–100 are waiting for you — and I want you to open them slowly this week. Not because they're difficult. But because they deserve the same unhurried attention you gave Psalm 51 on the first morning of June. You began this journey on the floor with David — reaching for God from the wreckage of his choices, asking for something that didn't yet exist in him. And this week, you arrive at a crescendo. Every thread this summer has carried — repentance, refuge, worship,...
Reader, One week to go. August is almost here — and with it comes that particular feeling of a summer well spent. Not rushed through. Not wasted. Spent. Intentionally, morning by morning, one Psalm at a time. What you have done over these 49 days is worth naming before we open the final full week of this journey. You chose the Word consistently — even on the days when the discipline cost more than the inspiration gave. That kind of faithfulness forms something in you that goes deeper than any...
Reader, Seven weeks. The finish line is close enough to see from here. Before we open this week's Psalms, I want to name something quietly. The summer that felt long in June is starting to feel finite. August is closer than it seemed. And there's something about the last stretch of anything that invites a particular kind of attention — a slowing down, a noticing, a willingness to let what has been growing in you actually land before the season closes. Last week, we sat with the sons of Korah...
