Sermons

Ordinary People with Extraordinary Causes

Esther 9:20-10:3 – After deliverance came celebration, and faithful servants helped preserve the story. God uses ordinary people who say yes to extraordinary causes for His glory.

Disarming the Enemy

Esther 9:1-19 – Instead of suffering defeat, God’s people gained ground. When God fights for you, no enemy can stand.

Plead on Behalf of Others

Esther 8:1-17 – Esther’s position insulated her from the opposition to God’s people, but she couldn’t sit idly or stay silent. We ought to plead on behalf of others when they cannot protect themselves.

Digging a Hole for Yourself

Esther 7:1-10 – Haman’s rage consumed him, and his plot backfired in dramatic fashion. Unchecked anger not only harms others, but it also destroys us.

Old Paths & New Steps

Jeremiah 6:16 – The prophet warned his people to change their attitudes and actions before God would have to discipline them. We don’t require new instructions; we need the resolve to live out the old ones.

Distinctive Discipleship (Eagle’s Landing FBC)

Colossians 1:27-29 – We often minimize Christianity to a momentary decision, but if we are following Jesus, we should still be moving. A disciple of Jesus continues to pursue thorough spiritual maturity.

Intentional Influence

Esther 5:1-14 – Esther seized her God-given opportunity and used it with wisdom. When we obey His leading, we must act with diligence and discretion.

For Such a Time as Missed

Esther 4:1-17 – Mordecai urged Esther to intervene for the sake of God’s people but trusted their survival even if she refused. We must remember that God’s will advances, with or without us.

Those People

Esther 3:7-15 – Haman’s hatred of the Jews incited him to seek their destruction. Any type of perceived superiority based on nationality or ethnicity is unfounded and ungodly. 

Right Regardless

Esther 2:19-3:6 – Mordecai wasn’t afraid to do what was right or refuse to do what was wrong. Regardless of the consequences, we must resolve to do the right thing. 

No Accidental Positions

Esther 2:1-18 – A pagan king sought a replacement queen, and Esther’s beauty positioned her for a purpose far greater than appearances. With God, no position is accidental—only providential.

When Power Goes Unchecked

Esther 1:1-22 – God’s people were exiles in a land where its leaders exemplified drunkenness, objectification, and all manner of sinful dysfunction. In this unconstrained society, God enacted a plan even though He was never mentioned or honored.
