As we continue to make our way through the Bible in a year, we now enter into a dark time during the time of Israel's exile in the book of Esther. Last week we saw Esther providentially appointed to be Queen in a pagan land, which leaves readers with a curiosity of what she will do to protect her people from destruction. In this episode, Brent and Trent talk about the faithfulness of Esther and Mordecai, and its application to Christians today and what it looks like to live out our faith in a culture that is opposed to our beliefs. Towards the end of this episode, the book of Job is briefly touched on because it is better understood in its entirety. For now, readers see an innocent man Job question god's goodness while his friends question his innocence.
