Introduction
- This turns into Miss Congeniality. The whole reason that Sandra Bullick’s character enters the beauty pageant is to solve the mystery and the threat on the pageant. We find out today that this movie is kind of ripping off the book of Esther. Esther wins the beauty pageant, but now she is in the midst of something more. Something deeper. Something that is showing that God is active in her life.
- Review last week
- Read Esther 2:19-23. Who was Mordecai? We will find out later that this is very, very important.
- Read Esther 3:1-4. Why did Mordecai refuse to bow down before Haman? What does this tell you about Haman?
- Read Esther 3:5-7. Just remember this
- Read Esther 3:8-15. Did Mordecai’s actions cause this to happen? No, it just sent it over the top.
- Do you think we have enough Mordecai’s in our Church today?
- What does a Mordecai look like? It is not someone who stands up against taxes. Mordecai wouldn’t be going to tea parties. He wouldn’t stand up on the side of the road and hold signs calling people who have had abortions murderers. Mordecai would be the man who simply did what he was supposed to do, and remembered who his God was.
- Do you think we need more people protesting, or living an exemplary life?
- What attributes was Esther given to help accomplish God’s will?
