Courage When God Seems Absent | The Story of Esther | Dr. Trent Langhofer - Teaching Pastor

What do we do when God seems absent? In this standalone message, Dr. Trent Langhofer walks through the story of Esther and shows how God can still be working behind the scenes, even when we cannot see His hand, understand the chapter, or control the outcome. Through Esther’s courage, Mordecai’s faith, and the unseen providence woven throughout the story, we learn to trust God’s presence, choose faithfulness in the next step, and live with confidence in His ultimate plan of redemption. We may not always understand what God is doing, but we can trust His heart. Because Jesus is alive, sorrow will not have the final word.
