The Book of Esther
The Hidden Hand of God
God Standing in the Shadows 
“… if I perish, I perish.” Est 4:16b
The book of Esther never mentions the name of God, but His hand is seen in everything that takes place in the story. The theme is easily understood as that of the providence of God. Esther is a story that illustrates the truth of this priceless doctrine. Providence has been called “the hand of God in the glove of history.” It is the heavenly Father watching over and caring for His people.
This conference was held in Western Pennsylvania October 10–12, 2014.

Cross to the Crown #8

Six general Christian responsibilities stem from the works of Grace (Tit 2:11) -- Eternal Life (Rom 6:23, Tit 3:4); God's Grace appeared to teach us; in this God is often silent in our tests so we learn what to leave, how to live (righteously), and what to look for ("the blessed hope") and zealous for good works. (1) Every believer must engage in Bible study (1Ti 4:13; 1Ti 3:16); (2) Confession of sin -- key to fellowship (Pro 28:13); (3) Effective prayer (Eph 6:18, Jam 5:16); (4) Witnessing (1Pe 3:15); (5) Giving (2Co 9:7); (6) Fellowship and communion -- maintaining unity (Eph 4:1-7).

Scripture References: Ephesians 6:18, Proverbs 28:13, Titus 3:4, Romans 6:23, Titus 2:11, Ephesians 4:1-7, James 5:16

From Series: "The Cross to the Crown"

To get from 'the cross to the crown' we need to make decisions to live a life of spiritual dynamics using God's provisions -- His Word and Spirit. This series given in early 2006 before Gene moved back to the States outlines ten aspects of our discipleship.
