Queen Esther
Join Gwen Stefani, Grammy award-winning singer-songwriter, as we dive into the story of Queen Esther, one of the most fascinating women of the Old Testament. Throughout the week, we’ll walk with Esther from poverty and exile to leadership in the royal palace. We’ll accompany her as she learns what it looks like to be faithful when you have everything to lose. Ultimately, we’ll see what Esther’s story means for our lives, as we respond to the call to serve and love those who are entrusted to our care.
