Today, Emma Dotter discusses the first 5 chapters of Esther. Throughout these chapters, the name of God is not mentioned, raising the question, "Where is God's name in the book of Esther?" Emma helps us to see God's providence in the midst of this story, even when he isn't explicitly mentioned.

In today's final episode of Nehemiah, Emma Dotter and Scott Sengbush talk about how Nehemiah was inspecting the work, holding the people to the expectations that God had set. The people's continued failings demonstrate the need for a change of heart in the people, which we have received through Christ and the Spirit of God.

In today's episode, Emma Dotter and Scott Sengbush discuss Nehemiah 8-10, focusing on the response of God's people after hearing God's word. They chose repentance and turning back to God. How will you turn your heart toward the Lord today and reflect on the great things he has done for you?
