Fickle Men, Sovereign God [Esther 2:1-22]

September 27, 2026

Sermon Notes

Date: 09/27/2026

Preacher: Josh Peglow, pastor

Series: Esther

Key Text: Esther 2:1-12

Description:

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast,
Pastor Josh Peglow returns to the book of Esther —

where changing minds,
shifting plans,
and human weakness
keep moving the story forward.

King Ahasuerus reverses course.
His counselors offer another solution.
Esther is drawn into the machinery
of the Persian court.

But while men change,
God does not.

His purposes do not shift.
His faithfulness does not fail.
And His sovereign hand
is never absent from the story.

Because though men are fickle
and earthly rule arbitrary,

God remains sovereign —
and faithful to His people.

When You Live Where Satan Dwells [Revelation 2:12-17]

Monty Simao 2014Sermon Notes

Date: 10/28/2018

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor

Series: Revelation

Key Text: Revelation 2:12-17

Description: As Christians we all stand ready to bat down blatant error. We wouldn’t hesitate to spring into action if someone in the church rebuffed justification by faith alone or denied the deity of Christ. …But what if the error was more subtle? …a small compromise that was just enough to give a foothold to the Devil.

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Revelation and shares with us that while we are all busy gearing for the full frontal attack, the truth is, we forget to guard our flanks. SBC logo 204x204

And when we do, we fail to see the seduction from without, or perhaps more sadly, the false teaching from within — giving permission to those small compromises that we think probably won’t matter.
