A beautiful queen, her courageous cousin, a foreign land, and a murderous adversary—the book of Esther has all the elements of an epic drama. The story unfolds at a time when the people of God are split between nations with an uncertain future. While the name of God may not be mentioned in the book of Esther, its pages highlight His work among His people and foreshadow Jesus’s very ministry to us—darkness to light, mourning to celebration, death to life.

 

In this 7-session study, Kelly Minter invites you into the daring faith modeled by Esther and her cousin Mordecai—a faith developed over time, rooted in the goodness of God, lived out through extraordinary circumstances, and used to change the world. Although our time looks different from Esther’s, our God is just as active and faithful today, and He has called you for such a time as this.  

 

Features:   

Verse-by-verse Bible study guide of the book of Esther   Content that explores the historical context of Esther’s day   7 teaching videos from Kelly Minter, approximately 30-40 minutes each, available via redemption code printed in the Bible study book   7 group sessions and 6 weeks of personal Bible study Beautiful full color interior to enhance your experience

Benefits:   

Discover how Esther’s story inspires us to live faithfully and courageously in our own time.    Understand how the book of Esther fits into God’s redemptive story.    Be reminded that God is always at work in every place and at all times, and is faithful to His promises. See how God uses faithful men and women working together to accomplish His redemptive purposes in the world. 
Video Sessions:Session One: Introduction (22:47)—In this opening video, Kelly teaches on the historical and cultural context of the book of Esther. The book of Esther tells the history of God’s people after the exile, specifically those who stayed in Persia. Through the accounts of this book, we see God’s faithfulness to His people everywhere and at all times.  Session Two: Welcome to the Empire (35:03)—Teaching through Esther 1, Kelly describes the oppressive life in the Persian empire and draws modern parallels to the spirit of empire in our world today. The realities of life in our broken world stir in us a longing for God’s kingdom, for the humble and kind nature of King Jesus.  Session Three: God’s People in Faraway Places (39:20)—Kelly’s teaching through Esther 2–3 highlights the profound truth that God does not forget His people. He will bless His people wherever they are and use them to accomplish His will.  Session Four: For Such a Time as This (32:52)—The events in Esther 4 highlight how God can use us in big ways to impact His kingdom. Kelly challenges us to open our eyes to what He wants to do in and through us for His glory and for the good of others.  Session Five: In Between Two Banquets (38:49)—In this video session, Kelly reflects on the remarkable truth that God is the only One truly in control, as we see through His work in Esther 5–6. We’re challenged to rest in His sovereign care, and to cast our care on Him.   Session Six: A Great Reversal (36:18)—In Esther 7–8, we see Esther put her life on the line and make great sacrifices for God’s people. As a result, she transforms; she goes from being someone living for the temporary pleasures of the palace to living for God and His kingdom. Kelly reminds us that through Jesus, this reversal is true in each of our lives.  Session Seven: A Great Celebration (29:44)—Through the close of the book of Esther, we see that God was just as faithful to the Jews who stayed in Persia as to those who returned home. Kelly closes her study with the reminder that we, too, can have confidence in God’s faithfulness to us, and this is cause for great celebration.

Perhaps no other book of the Bible feels as inaccessible and as intimidating to us as the very last one. The book of Revelation overflows with images and ideas that confound our modern ears. But if all Scripture is God-breathed and profitable, we should assume Revelation is as accessible and helpful as any other book of the Bible. Why don’t we see it that way?  

Two thousand years ago, John’s Revelation was circulated and read aloud among seven churches in Asia Minor. Those who heard the letter understood it and drew encouragement from its message. The same can be true for you today. Over 10 sessions of verse-by-verse Bible study, Jen Wilkin helps you discover how the last book of the Bible—the culmination of God’s great story—speaks both a steadying word of assurance and a strong call to endure to the church in every age. 

Features 

Verse-by-verse study of the book of Revelation  10 video teaching sessions unpacking truths found throughout the study and offering additional insights, available via redemption code printed in the Bible study book  9 weeks of personal study featuring illuminating questions to help you focus on and understand Scripture  Includes the full text of Revelation  Appendix with helps for interpretation and further study Leader helps for group discussion

Benefits 

Learn how to read and understand the language and symbols of apocalyptic writing Move from confused to confident, anxious to assured, and intimidated to inspired as you study the end times  Understand Revelation as the culmination of God’s great story  Walk through the book verse-by-verse, from start to finish Video Sessions:Introduction: Before You Begin (04:56)—In this introductory video, Jen describes her Bible study methodology and what to expect from her study approach to the book of Revelation. Watch this video with your group or on your own before you begin your study.   Bonus Video: A Word for Group Leaders (03:53)—If you’re leading a Bible study group or facilitating discussion through Revelation, don’t miss this leader video with a word from Jen just for you.   Week One: Unveiling (59:57)—In this introduction to the study, Jen gives an overview and background information to the book of Revelation and walks through Revelation 1:1-3. She also explains the genre of apocalyptic literature and the important role the Old Testament plays in understanding John’s vision.  Week Two: Seven Churches (51:18)—Jen walks through Revelation 1:4–3:22, John’s vision of the Son of Man and the letters to the seven churches in Asia Minor. These verses hold encouragement for us and the church today to stand strong in our faith because Jesus is ruling and reigning from His throne.  Week Three: The Heavenly Throne Room (45:25)—In this video, Jen teaches Revelation 4–5, John’s vision of the heavenly throne room. Using passages from throughout Scripture, Jen helps make sense of the scene John views and the heavenly reality we can hold onto with assurance and hope.  Week Four: Seven Seal (41:20)—As we continue through the book of Revelation, Jen teaches on Revelation 6:1–8:1, the seven seal judgments that are poured out on the earth. We will consider how this scene of God’s wrath being poured out on the earth can grow our faith in the Lord and our endurance unto the end.  Week Five: Seven Trumpets (49:44)—This video features Jen’s teaching on Revelation 8:2–11:19, which covers the seven trumpet judgments. As Jen explains, these chapters encourage us that God is long-suffering, just, and faithful to all generations.   Week Six: Seven Histories (50:04)—Revelation 12:1–15:5, which Jen teaches through in this video, covers seven snapshots from John’s vision. These chapters give a glimpse at the interplay between heavenly and earthly realities, offering an anchor of encouragement to the children of God in every age.  Week Seven: Seven Bowls (40:10)—In this teaching, Jen covers Revelation 15:1–16:21, the seven bowl judgments. These scenes serve as a reminder that God’s love for the saints necessitates His justice against His enemies.  Week Eight: Seven Words of Woe (49:56)—As Jen teaches through Revelation 17:1–19:10, seven messages that describe the downfall of the kingdom of earth, we are reminded that we await a better city—the eternal kingdom of God.  Week Nine: Seven Last Sights (56:00)—With this teaching, Jen nears the end of Revelation and God’s grand story. Revelation 19:11–21:8 describe the final demise of the enemy and the celebration of the bride of Christ in all her glory.  Week Ten: On Earth as in Heaven (39:19)—Jen closes her study on Revelation with Revelation 21:9–22:21. This final picture from John’s vision is an encouragement for us toward steadfastness and hope.
