God's Mysterious Ways: Embracing God's Providence in Esther, A Ten-Lesson Bible Study (Jane Roach)

Description

Has God ever seemed distant from issues and events that deeply impact you? Has He really intended for certain things to happen?

The book of Esther never mentions God, yet it gives us fascinating insight into his unerring work to rescue his people. Using commentary, application questions, testimonies, and hymns, Jane Roach walks us through the book’s compelling historical narrative and helps us to identify and learn from God’s providential activity.

See God’s hand in your own circumstances, lean on him, and experience a new life of gratitude, peace, and joy.

"Don't feel bad if you didn't know Esther was in the Bible. It is rarely cited, much less explored, in Christian circles today. But after you read this wonderful Bible study on Esther, you will have one more reason to treasure God's Word. As usual, Jane Roach offers an accessible map: the setting of the book, the role of divine providence, and Esther's place in the history of redemption. Then she weaves exposition with worship, which is after all the goal of this and every other book in the Bible."

—Michael Horton
