Please join us in the lounge on Mondays at 1pm for our next Ladies Bible study session. We will start on Monday November 17th and go for three sessions, then take a break for the Christmas season and return in January for the last three sessions of this study.
Since we are in the season of being bold in fresh expressions of our faith as a community and discerning how we move forward with new ministries at NLUC, we will look at the book of Esther. Using the book by Max Lucado, “You Were Made For This Moment”, and accompanying videos we will seek to see how the story of Esther inspires us to step up and stand out for God.
PLEASE SIGN UP BY WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 12 TO ENSURE YOU HAVE YOUR COPY OF THE BOOK. Contact Hilary King at 604 764 6898, hilaryjking@shaw.ca or the church office.
Book Overview
Join Max Lucado on a journey through the book of Esther as he reminds us that God need not be loud to be strong, he need not cast a shadow to be present...and he is active even when he appears distant.
This study was born in a hard season--a pandemic that locked down the world. Church doors closed. Students were stuck at home. Masks hid smiles. And as if this weren't enough, the ancient sin of racism and hatred seems to be trying to undo us. Many of us are left wondering if this season will ever pass.
To all these things, God has a six-letter word of encouragement: E-S-T-H-E-R. The book that bears her name was written to be read in hard seasons. It was crafted for those who feel outnumbered by foes, outmaneuvered by fate, and outdone by fear.
In the You Were Made for This Moment five-session video Bible study (streaming included), pastor and New York Times bestselling author Max Lucado presents the story of Esther in all its drama, urgency, and hope.
