The Ironic Providence of God: A Sermon on Esther 6

Heart of Flesh

This episode is a short sermon by James Kaczor on Esther Chapter 6. In the book of Esther we find something very interesting, and it's that there is no mention of God anywhere in the entire book. This is especially strange considering that the different names for God (God/Lord) are by far the most commonly found nouns in the Bible (Because the Bible is a book about God). However, in this short book, there is no mention of God. Why is this? Well, in this short sermon, James will show that even though the book of Esther doesn't use the name of God, it is clear that the fingerprints of God are all over the book and its events. In this book we see a wonderful picture of God's Providence at work to save his people and bring shame to his enemies.
