{Video} Esther 3: Confronting Corruption With Courage & Discernment


Hey Reader,

When faced with corrupt and unjust leaders, knowing how to respond as followers of Christ can be difficult.

In today's powerful Bible study on Esther 3, we unpack key lessons from Mordecai on confronting corruption with courage and discernment. These lessons from Mordecai teach how to interact with leaders in a God-honoring way. Plus, you'll learn 7 signs of a CORRUPT LEADER that you may not know.

Although corruption can feel normal when it's widespread, God's Word is our firm foundation. Let's stay alert, prayerful, and discerning so we're not led astray.

So, if you're facing a situation that's causing you to compromise your faith, I pray today's message gives you the clarity and boldness to navigate it in a way that honors and glorifies God.
