Synopsis: Have you ever asked yourself, "Why is this happening to me?" Amid a perilous time for her people, a young Jewish woman named Esther rose to the position of queen in the Persian Empire seemingly by chance and asked herself a very similar question. Why me? Perhaps you've asked similar questions in uncertain situations and hardships you've faced in life. For Esther, she learned that she was right where God needed her to be for him to carry out his plans for his people. God was with her, using all things—even troubling and uncertain times—for the good of his people. In this powerful seven-session women's Bible study on the book of Esther, author Lou Ann Mokwa interweaves Scripture and discussion questions together to show you God's grace to Esther, all so you can see God's grace in your own life as well. Through this book, you will be encouraged to put your trust in God in every trouble and know that he is working all things—both good and bad—for your ultimate good. Designed for personal devotions, online, or small-group study, this Bible study book written specifically for women includes: An opening prayer for each of the seven sessions References to other parts of Scripture Multiple discussion questions for conversation with other Christian women A leader's guide (including information about how to teach the study) An Answer Key for the discussion questions to help guide the conversation
