Esther – Daring Faith for Such a Time as This by Kelly Minter

TUESDAY EVENINGS @ 6:30 – 8:00pm

A beautiful queen, her courageous cousin, a foreign land, and a murderous adversary—the book of Esther has all the elements of an epic drama. The story unfolds at a time when the people of God are split between nations with an uncertain future. While the name of God may not be mentioned in the book of Esther, its pages highlight His work among His people and foreshadow Jesus’s very ministry to us—darkness to light, mourning to celebration, death to life.

You are invited into the daring faith modeled by Esther and her cousin Mordecai—a faith developed over time, rooted in the goodness of God, lived out through extraordinary circumstances, and used to change the world. Although our time looks different from Esther’s, our God is just as active and faithful today, and He has called you for such a time as this.

• Leader: Karen Smith

Fowler

Sundays @ 11:00am. We are parents of young children who recognize our design for a God-centered community as we raise our families to love and serve God and others. A harbor provides a place of safe anchorage for vessels from the open seas. We desire that our group be a safe refuge for its members. Harbors are also a place from which boats are sent out.  We want to encourage one another to live God’s mission as those sent by Him into the world.  We desire to foster a community where we build deep relationships, love and care for one another, and live out the Gospel of Jesus daily.
