Continuing Emily's reflections on Esther.

In week 3 of our series looking at characters from the Old Testament, Emily considers Esther. Her story shows us how God uses compromised people, it challenges us to have courage and gives us confidence that God is in control.

Graham reflects on the story of Ruth, how God can re-write our stories and bring hope, even in the midst of questions and suffering (Ruth 1: 6-22).

Graham invites us to think about communion during the evening service, looking at why we share together, as one people, remembering Jesus's sacrifice and allowing this to shape who we are (Matt 26: 17-30).

Joanna looks at the life of Samuel and thinks about how we hear from God, who wants to speak to us, to guide us (1 Sam 3: 1-10).
