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.

Hey Reader, Lately, I’ve been noticing something I can’t ignore anymore. Since going back to teaching full-time two years ago, I still haven’t found a rhythm that truly works. Most days feel scattered as I move from one responsibility to the next, until Friday finally arrives and everything slows down. And if I’m honest, that lack of rhythm hasn’t just impacted me. It’s affected how I show up in every area of my life. Maybe you know that feeling too. You’re doing what needs to be done. You’re...
Hey Reader, Today is Good Friday. This weekend carries a weight that doesn't come around often — and I don't want to rush past it. Lately, I've been reading through Leviticus, and I've found myself loving it more than I expected. Not because it's easy, but because it gives language and structure to what Jesus ultimately fulfilled. Especially in Leviticus 23, where God establishes appointed festivals for His people — sacred rhythms of remembrance. These weren't random celebrations. They were...
Hey Reader, I hope you’re stepping into this week with a desire to continue growing and being rooted in God’s Word as we move forward in our Thessalonians study. If you missed last week’s teaching, we spent time in 1 Thessalonians Chapter 2, looking at the heart posture behind how we live, serve, and share the gospel. If you haven’t had a chance to watch yet, you can catch up here before we continue the challenge tomorrow. As a quick reminder, the teachings go live on YouTube every Tuesday at...
