About this Item
Overview
Because the Esther Bible study book includes video streaming access, the purchase of this Video Streaming - Group product is optional (not essential). This option provides video access for groups who choose not to use the Bible study books.Esther - Video Streaming - Group includes perpetual streaming access* to 7 teaching sessions by Kelly Minter for group viewing. This product includes 10 transferable licenses with perpetual video access for group leaders.
In this 7-session study, Kelly Minter invites you into the daring faith modeled by Esther and her cousin Mordecai—a faith rooted in the goodness of God, lived out through extraordinary circumstances, and used to change the world. Although our time looks different from Esther’s, our God is just as active and faithful today, and He has called you for such a time as this.
Video Sessions:
- Session One: Introduction (22:47)—In this opening video, Kelly teaches on the historical and cultural context of the book of Esther. The book of Esther tells the history of God’s people after the exile, specifically those who stayed in Persia. Through the accounts of this book, we see God’s faithfulness to His people everywhere and at all times.
- Session Two: Welcome to the Empire (35:03)—Teaching through Esther 1, Kelly describes the oppressive life in the Persian empire and draws modern parallels to the spirit of empire in our world today. The realities of life in our broken world stir in us a longing for God’s kingdom, for the humble and kind nature of King Jesus.
- Session Three: God’s People in Faraway Places (39:20)—Kelly’s teaching through Esther 2–3 highlights the profound truth that God does not forget His people. He will bless His people wherever they are and use them to accomplish His will.
- Session Four: For Such a Time as This (32:52)—The events in Esther 4 highlight how God can use us in big ways to impact His kingdom. Kelly challenges us to open our eyes to what He wants to do in and through us for His glory and for the good of others.
- Session Five: In Between Two Banquets (38:49)—In this video session, Kelly reflects on the remarkable truth that God is the only One truly in control, as we see through His work in Esther 5–6. We’re challenged to rest in His sovereign care, and to cast our care on Him.
- Session Six: A Great Reversal (36:18)—In Esther 7–8, we see Esther put her life on the line and make great sacrifices for God’s people. As a result, she transforms; she goes from being someone living for the temporary pleasures of the palace to living for God and His kingdom. Kelly reminds us that through Jesus, this reversal is true in each of our lives.
- Session Seven: A Great Celebration (29:44)—Through the close of the book of Esther, we see that God was just as faithful to the Jews who stayed in Persia as to those who returned home. Kelly closes her study with the reminder that we, too, can have confidence in God’s faithfulness to us, and this is cause for great celebration.
