    25.06.21 “Ezra to Jerusalem” (Ezra 7:6-20)
    Jun 20 2025

    Do you like to travel? How about long ‘road trips’, do you like those? What’s the longest road trip you’ve ever taken and how much preparation did you make? Yesterday we met a Jewish scholar and teacher named Ezra and he was commissioned by the Persian Emperor, King Artaxerxes. Commissioned to what? Ezra was commissioned to lead a group of Jews from Babylon on a long road trip of about 750 miles to Jerusalem. Why? To encourage those rebuilding the city and especially to try and stimulate their spiritual vitality and their faithfulness to the laws of the God of Israel given to Moses about 1000 years before! Pause a second…did you get all that?

    They say, “Time changes Things” and that sure is true, isn’t it? Think back perhaps 10 years or 20 years ago. What was going on in your life and how would you describe how different you were back then? Time changes leaders for sure and today let’s re-join Ezra and King Artaxerxes in 458bc to see the dramatic change 7 years of TIME has brought.

    25.06.19 “Upheaval” (Ezra 4:7-23)
    Jun 18 2025

    ‘Upheaval’ is a troubling word, especially when applied to leadership transitions, do you agree? “Upheaval” leaves people anxious, unsettled, fearful and maybe even terrified. “Upheaval” characterizes a time of anarchy and mayhem. Yesterday we looked at the closing verses of the wonderful story of Queen Esther. We considered that 8 years of peace and prosperity apparently followed the remarkable “PURIM” miracle of God which spared the Jewish people from annihilation on March 7, 473bc.

    Jun 17 2025

    June is often a month of great transitions in most societies of the world, right? Graduations and weddings propel young people to new adventures! June is a month of vacations and often people visit places they’ve never been before. June is a month of relocation as many, many people move to a new place to start a new season of life. Today we come to the close of Esther’s story in the Bible.

    25.06.17 “Heritage Celebration” (Esther 9:20-28)
    Jun 16 2025

    Of all the holidays you celebrate each year, which are your favorite and why? What makes those days so special? The food, the gathering of friends and family, the events celebrated, time off from work or school. Over the past several days we’ve been immersed in the remarkable story of Esther found in the Old Testament Bible book which bears her name. It’s an amazing story, isn’t it? As you may know it is one of the great annual festivals for the Jewish people around the world even today. It’s called “PURIM”.

    25.06.14 “Opposing Edicts call for War?” (Esther 8:11-17)
    Jun 13 2025

    Have you ever imagined what it must be like for a law enforcement officer or military soldier to be fully armed, trained, equipped and commissioned to engage the enemy without restriction, especially if they are defending you or your people or the city? Or can you imagine being defenseless, unarmed, and knowing there is a fully armed enemy coming to destroy you? We return back to Susa, the capital of the Persian kingdom, in 474bc, and the story of Esther and Mordecai attempting to help their Jewish people defend themselves.

    Jun 12 2025

    Whenever the calendar gives us a ‘Friday the 13th’, are you one of those people who either doesn’t want to get out of bed in the morning, or walks through the day constantly both looking over your shoulder and very cautiously putting one foot in front of the other? Today is one of those days, isn’t it?
