Esther 4: God, Who is Not Mentioned

Look to Love is a podcast from JL Gerhardt to help you read the Bible a better way—to see, know, and fall in love with God. Every week we read a passage of scripture, usually a chapter or so, (working our way from Genesis to Revelation) and ask the question, "Who is God?" We focus our attention on Him in hopes of seeing Him more clearly and ultimately loving Him more dearly. That's the point of everything, the Bible, our lives; we're here to love God with our hearts, minds, souls, and strength. So let’s open our Bibles and look to love.
