Jonny Alden

We look at what we can learn from the life of this week’s unlikely hero – Esther. Jonny encourages us to consider three lessons. Firstly God works through the small and the weak. Esther was scared yet was prepared to do what she was called to do. Secondly Esther used what God had placed in her hand. Jonny challenges us to think through what it is that God has put in our hands that he wants us to use. Finally Esther chose faith over fear. We may find this difficult but like Esther we need to place our trust in God’s goodness.
