Coming to his senses after his royal decree against Queen Vashti, the king realizes that he is in need of a replacement queen. Arrangements are made to gather many young, beautiful virgins in order to seek a replacement. Among these is Esther, cousin of Mordecai, who is a beautiful orphaned Jewish girl. Esther impresses the king’s eunuch who advises her on how to seek the king’s favor, which she succeeds at. Esther is made Queen and a feast is prepared in her honor. Later, two of the king’s eunuchs plan to rebel against the king, and Mordecai tells Queen Esther, who faithfully informs the king of their plot and the two are hanged. Pastor Keith explains how God’s providence affects us all. We are all designed to fulfill a role for God.
