The Book of the Bible That's Missing God | Esther 1-2

There's a book in the middle of the Bible where God never shows up. Not once.
No miracles. No prayer. No divine intervention. Just a young woman hiding who she really is — her identity, her faith, her people — in order to survive in a world run by powerful, fragile, drunk men.
And somehow that made it into our Bible.
This week we open the Book of Esther. It's strange, morally complicated, and honestly a little unsettling. Which might be exactly why it's there.
