Combine palace intrigue with wondering about purpose and seeing how God works in unexpected ways—that's the book of Esther. 

Pastor Mike's new sermon series is a six-part look at the book of Esther. He is joined by Amber Albee Swenson as they give us a preview of this new series, "What's the Point?" In addition to discussing how God shows up in this book even though his name is never mentioned, Pastor Mike and Amber also share valuable insights such as: why Amber protests using "The Bachelor" as an analogy for Esther; what is "The Curse of Knowledge" and "The Curse of Wisdom"; and what Pastor Mike's grand plan was before he became a pastor.

"What's the Point?" kicks off this Sunday, June 4.

Also starting Sunday, June 4, you can also request a copy of this month's new book, "Real Women of the Bible," by Dr. Paul Kelm. It explores the character of some of the remarkable women in Scripture to reveal how each one of us today can carry on the same legacy of faith.
