• Introduction (2:34)
• Session 1: Gideon by Priscilla Shirer: Judges 6:11-13(43:32)—God is more interested in changing your heart than He is in changing your circumstances. Priscilla explores how God positions His people for His purposes.
• Session 2: Nehemiah by Kelly Minter: Nehemiah 2:11–4:15(23:04)—The message and sacrifice in Nehemiah is not just for other people, it is for us. It is God’s kindness that leads us to repentance and leads us to love others better.
• Session 3: Esther by Beth Moore: Esther 4:1-17(1:05:32)—Test how much you believe God about who you are and the position you hold. Esther goes through changes to move her from self-preservation to brave determination.
• Session 4: Hosea by Jennifer Rothschild: Hosea 2 and 3 (32:07)—We are prone to wander away from God. Men, women, the church, people have done this for centuries: lost their first love. The problem is a lack of knowledge and avoiding the temptation to put activity for God in place of relationship with Him
• Session 5: Malachi by Lisa Harper: Malachi 1:2-5 (27:40)—This session is all about the power of God’s grace and God’s definitive declaration of love for His people. Our Redeemer loves broken people.
