If you keep silent at this time, relief and deliverance will come to the Jewish people from another place, but you and your father’s family will be destroyed. Who knows, perhaps you have come to your royal position for such a time as this. —Esther 4:14 In the face of certain destruction, an orphaned Jewish girl in a new position of power risked everything to save her people. This historical book is a true tale of a proud king, a queen, an assassination plot, and the fate of the Jewish people. But the themes run much deeper. Although the book never mentions God by name, His presence and providence are evident at every turn. Join us as we spend two weeks reading the book of Esther, discovering how God uses unlikely people in uncertain times to accomplish His purposes.

She Reads Truth is a worldwide community of women who read God's Word together every day. Founded in 2012, She Reads Truth invites women of all ages to engage Scripture through curated daily reading plans, as well as online conversation led by a vibrant community of contributing writers. This community of “Women in the Word of God every day” represents a long list of cities and countries, a variety of backgrounds and traditions, and countless real-life stories. But there is a commonality that binds us: we believe God's Word is Truth. So we read. Every day we read a new passage together—working our way through books of the Bible, topics that matter, and seasons of the Church calendar. We engage with God's Word and with each other. And we keep coming back, on the hard days and the good days, because God and His Word never change, regardless of our circumstances. Source: https://shereadstruth.com/about/
