Ep 46: For Such a Time as This

Welcome to the transformational podcast. A conversation between brothers about practical ways faith is impacting our lives. We invite you to join us on this journey as we are learning to let faith transform the way we live. Romans 12:2

Chris and I have not caught up in two weeks, so that is really where we start in this episode. Chris got to see the Ark and the Creation museum, and Robert discusses the pace of his busiest week yet.

Then Chris points out today Chapter 10 of Esther, and that the only person mentioned in this chapter is Mordecia. It says in verse 3, "Mordecai the Jew was second in rank to King Xerses preeminent among the Jews, and held in high esteem by his many fellow Jews, because he worked for the good of his people and spoke up for the welfare of all Jews."

This leads into a discussion of Esther as read from the perspective of Mordecai, and how God used Mordecai as much if not more than Esther during this period of time. God elevated Mordecai from gate guard to "second in rank". 

In the story of Mordecai, Chris points out that God fights for you, God protects you, and that relational authority can be as effective (if not more) as positional authority. The idea is that God's is transforming your life as he works through you in your sphere of influence.
