Are Fear, Doubt, and Discord the ’new normal‘?A global pandemic, social unrest, contentious elections, and prolonged isolation may make you think so. But Brave Like Esther: Faith’s Answer to Fear in a World Full of Questions reminds us that no calamity can outflank the perfect plans of a sovereign, loving God-even when all seems lost. For proof, trace God’s sovereign fingerprints through one of the most dramatic books in the Bible: Esther. Does God have a plan to use the world’s evil to achieve his redemption? Does the average person have a role to play in redeeming a broken world? Does God place specific people in specific places to accomplish specific tasks? Connecting past to present, pastor Ray Green’s Brave Like Esther illuminates God’s perfect plan as it played out in the risky choices of Esther and Mordecai-Jewish exiles in Persia in the 480s BC-and challenges American Christians to make similarly courageous leaps of faith. Each chapter of Brave Like Esther shows how deep convictions, shaped by faith in the biblical God, quell fear, doubt, disappointment, conflict, and even death. Green’s investigation of Esther drives at two critical questions:What divine fingerprints are in my life?Have I surrendered to God ‚for such a time as this‘?The chapters of Brave Like Esther began as sermons preached to the author’s local congregation at Immanuel Baptist Church in Lexington, Kentucky.
