About this episode

Pastor Chuck Swindoll discusses how God can break down barriers and inspire courage through the story of Esther.

Have you ever run into a wall with no way around it? After Haman’s downfall, the decree against the Jews still stood. The situation was desperate . . . until Esther boldly petitioned the king again, and he granted her request. The king issued a new edict allowing the Jews to defend themselves, saving them from their enemies. Join Pastor Chuck Swindoll as he reveals from Esther 8 how God breaks down walls, melts hardened hearts, and rewrites what seems unchangeable. Trust God’s power to inspire you and help you overcome your toughest battles.
