    Week 26: Esther | When God Seems Silent

    What happens when God's name is never mentioned, yet His presence is woven through every chapter? In Week 26 of The Long Way Through Scripture, we explore the book of Esther and discover a story of courage, providence, and quiet faithfulness. Although God never speaks directly or performs an obvious miracle, His hand is evident through ordinary events that come together in extraordinary ways. As we follow Esther, Mordecai, and the unfolding events within the Persian Empire, we're reminded that God is often working behind the scenes long before we recognize what He is doing. This week's reflection: God is often working in ways we cannot yet see. Whether you're following the full reading plan or simply listening along, I hope this episode encourages you to trust God's faithfulness, even during seasons when He seems silent. 🔗 Linktree:https://linktr.ee/unpolishedbutcalled 🌐 Website:https://www.kathrinshaffer.com 📖 Free Devotional:https://www.kathrinshaffer.com

    After years of exile, the story begins to turn toward home. In Week 25 of The Long Way Through Scripture, we walk through the books of Ezra and Nehemiah and discover that restoration is rarely instant. The people return to Jerusalem, rebuild the temple, repair the walls, and slowly reconnect with the God who never abandoned them. Along the way we encounter discouragement, opposition, prayer, perseverance, and the reminder that rebuilding often happens one faithful step at a time. This week's reflection: God often rebuilds slowly what we wish He would restore instantly. Whether you're following the full reading plan or simply listening along, I hope this episode helps you stay rooted in God's Word and encouraged in your own season of rebuilding. 🔗 Linktree:https://linktr.ee/unpolishedbutcalled 🌐 Website:https://www.kathrinshaffer.com 📖 Free Devotional:https://www.kathrinshaffer.com
