'Although the book of Esther doesn't directly mention God, Amy and Lynn help you see His guiding hand throughout this young queen's journey. You'll find helpful insights, engaging questions, and new perspectives realizing the Lord at work in your own story as you turn the pages of this excellent Bible study.' * <b>Melissa Spoelstra, speaker and author of </em>Isaiah: Striving Less and Trusting God More</em></b> * 'As a Bible teacher and lover of Esther's miraculous story, I thought that I knew everything about the book of the Esther. Wrong! Amy and Lynn's new study provides fresh spiritual insights as well as humbly and lovingly raising the bar on Spirit-led personal application and spiritual challenge. Personally, I loved experiencing fascinating new 'a-ha' moments every day of this study!' * <b>Barb Roose, speaker and author of <em>Surrendered: Letting Go and Living Like Jesus</em>; <em>Joshua: Winning the Worry Battle</em>; and other studies</b> * 'Christians and non-Christians alike are coming to terms with the uncertainty of this life. But as we balance ongoing uncertainty with our unwavering call as Christians, here comes Amy and Lynn, trusted friends, to help with a fresh look at the ancient text of Esther. From the narrative of a girl who is often reviled, Amy and Lynn skillfully yet gracefully show how much like you and me she is. With humor and transparent authenticity, Amy and Lynn share their pitfalls as well as biblical principles which helped them grow spiritually through trying seasons of life. As you read the scripture and allow them to read you, like Amy, Lynn and Esther, God will encourage, convict, and empower you to stand firm, regardless of the outcome. Wherever you are in your life, this must-do bible study is for such a time as this.' * <b>Karen McNary, Bible Study Fellowship: Director of Global Cultural Engagement</b> * 'Have you had struggles where God felt invisible, uncaring, and uninvolved? Me, too. Amy and Lynn tenderly reveal how God is always in control and show us ourselves in Esther's story. This Bible study will guide you from Persia straight to the place you call home, and help you hope in God's unwavering hand when he leads you out of your comfort zone into your calling.' * <b>Amy Lively, author of <em>How to Love Your Neighbor Without Being Weird</em></b> * 'If you're looking for the standard 'Here's how to get through hard times, just look to God' answers, you've come to the wrong Bible study. Esther: Seeing Our Invisible God in an Uncertain World goes beyond the platitudes and dives into the messy, deep end of the pool. If you've been swimming in the deep end for the past couple of years, asking the tough questions, this book is for you.' * <b>Kathi Lipp, bestselling author and founder of Writing at the Red House</b> * 'This study is a mix of fun, insight, and a deep dive into scripture. What I love most is that it has the power to teach me today how to live as a woman of faith right now, and to make a difference in a world that God loves like crazy.' * <b>Suzanne (Suzie) Eller, author, Bible teacher, co-host of <em>More Than Small Talk</em> podcast</b> *
