Esther: Bible study for the rest of us

Esther is an incredibly well-known story, a tale of reversals if ever there was one; from orphan girl to Queen, from imminent annihilation to victory. There is hope for all of us in the story of Esther. Join me on this 10 session study as we ask questions of the text and of ourselves. Esther – bible study for the rest of us because we do not all have degree’s and use big words! What people are saying about the series JONAH Bible study for the rest of us by Graham Hill Graham needed some ‘famous’ friends to write something about his latest book...well I’m not famous and I’m also a rubbish friend as I’ve only spoke with Graham twice in the last 12 months! That said I do know Graham and I know his heart is to make the Word of God accessible to ordinary people just like you and me, and in this book I believe he has achieved that! Now when a Bible study book starts in the first chapter with an icebreaker that asks, ‘If you could punch one person in the room who would it be and why?’ It makes one’s religious eyebrows significantly rise! But here’s the thing, this book is not just another religious book informing you of more Bible verses and their complex original meaning in Hebrew or Greek, it’s a book for ordinary people who want an extraordinary relationship with God. The book’s style, content and reflective questions are designed to get you both comfortable with the God of Jonah (and the rest of us on the planet) and at the same time challenge you to the core, so that there’s nothing you can do but surrender yourself to him for divine character surgery. I found this book on Jonah consisting of six Bible Studies designed for individual or small group use really good, of course it was biblically informing in its nature, but if you have an open heart it will also be transforming...enjoy! Bottom line (here’s my reputation on the line) would I personally buy the book? Yes! And would I use it for small group study in my church? Yes! And what’s more I can’t wait to do so!
