Sermon

Esther, Part 2: The Rise of Esther

September 21, 2025 Jim SuppSermonsEsther

God loves to take broken and obscure people, grab hold of their lives, and use them for His purposes. That’s what He did with Esther and what He wants to do with all of us.

Esther, Part 2: The Rise of Esther

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS FOR SHEPHERD GROUPS

  1. What stood out to you in this passage?
  2. It what ways in your own life’s journey have you seen God use broken people—someone you know or in your own life?
  3. Have you ever felt sidelined for use in the hand of God? Can you explain?
  4. How have you seen our world become more disconnected and oversexualized?
  5. How do you resist this trend in your own life?
  6. How can the church do a more effective job of mitigating the impact of these things in the body of Christ?
