Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Truly you are a God who has been hiding himself, the God and Savior of Israel. —Isaiah 45:15 NIV In the book of Esther, there is no mention of God, the Holy Spirit, or prayer. On the surface, there is nothing spiritual about the book. It seems to be a short historical account of the persecution of the Jews and their subsequent victory over their enemies. Yet in reality, there is so much more. In The Gospel According to Esther, we will see the hidden story: the history of humanity. Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation tell this exciting story of a magnificent and loving God wanting to have a relationship with the people he created. The creation, the fall of humanity, the death and resurrection of Christ are just a few of the events covered. The overall theme of the book: God is preparing a bride for his Son. The main people in the Esther story are listed here, together with the person they represent in the hidden story: King Xerxes—God; Queen Vashti—Eve; Mordecai—Jesus; Haman—Satan; Hegai—Holy Spirit; and Esther—the bride of Christ. Open The Gospel According to Esther and see how these characters play out the story of humanity and the gospel as portrayed in the Bible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered, "If God is real, then why doesn't He make it more obvious? If He really wants us to believe in Him, then why doesn't He make it easier for us to see him?" It's easy to read the Bible and think, "If only God would show up for us today the way He showed up for His people back then." If you have ever felt this way, welcome to the book of Esther. "The God of Great Reversals" was written to shed light on the Gospel story woven throughout the only book of the Bible that never mentions God's name. In it you will find that even in the darkest days, God never stops working to keep His promises and to rescue His people. Ultimately, the reversals in the book of Esther point us forward to the greatest reversal of all when God used the death of His only Son to bring about the salvation of all his people. It is only this great reversal that is able to bring us hope even when we don't understand where God is or what He is doing.
