189 - Old Testament Survey - Esther
The Glory-Cloud Podcast
This week Todd and Chris turn to the book of Esther. Todd really has some great insight into the book since he grew up Jewish. How do we understand this book that never mentions God? Is God still there? What about his promises? What does God’s apparent absence mean for the promised Messiah? Whose word is irrevocable: the decree of the Medes and the Persians, or God’s word? Listen in as we talk about finding Christ in this unique book of the Bible.

The Glory-Cloud Podcast
Job is definitely about suffering. But why does Job suffer? In this episode, we use Meredith Kline’s contribution about Job in the Wycliffe Bible Commentary to connect Job’s suffering to what has come before in redemptive history - and what will come after. We hope you find this episode encouraging!
