Episode Synopsis

In this section the main antagonist of the story of Esther appears, Hamen, who is identified as the enemy of the Jews and wants to destroy God’s people. What does it mean to be faithful in a world that hates God’s people? In this sermon we’ll consider the actions of Mordecai as examples of being faithful. That looks like sometimes pursing the good of the city around you, and other times looks like resisting the evil of the world. Always, though, we are to stand firm in the truth of the Gospel.
