Great Lives: Esther (Great Lives Series)

Everyone loves a transformation story. Rags to riches. Plain to beautiful. Weak to strong. The story of Queen Esther is that and so much more. The second book in Charles Swindoll’s Great Lives series, this book will show you Queen Esther’s life and legacy like you’ve never seen it before.

Innocently victimized by an unbearable situation, Esther stepped up and determined, by God’s grace, to make a difference. But she doesn’t despair. Instead, she embraces uncertainty and fights for her people. In doing so, she not only exposed and foiled the plans of an evil man–she singlehandedly saved her nation.

As you dive deeper into Esther’s story, you’ll learn timeless lessons that you can apply to your own life, including:

The importance of standing up for what you believe in, even when it’s difficultHow to embrace your God-given strengthThe true limits of retaliation

Join Swindoll as he unravels the ancient, real-life story of Esther, sharing ways that modern believers can embody the integrity, dignity, and strength that empowered Esther as she did the impossible.
