Posted on March 26, 2020 One of my most favorite Bible verses is Esther 4:14. It is Mordecai’s response to Queen Esther’s hesitation to approach the king for relief for her people. “For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father’s family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this.” “For such a time as this!” The Bible is full of stories about people who seem to be positioned for just one important act. In 2013, our team at Sermon.net made a full commitment to provide the best service possible to churches and ministries who want to broadcast on the Internet through a non-profit service that has a sole goal of growing God’s Kingdom. In 2016, our team at Eyewitness Bible Series made a full commitment to produce a free, high-quality series of videos and study guides to help people learn the Bible better. In the past couple of weeks, most churches in America and around the world had to move toward broadcasted services because of the Corona Virus pandemic. Sermon.net’s use went up by a factor of ten, as they broadcasted to millions of people around the world. The use of the Eyewitness videos increased dramatically as people used them to replace sermons for church, or for small group and individual study. Please recommend Sermon.net and Eyewitness Bible Study to anybody you know who can benefit from our services. We are not happy that our time has come because of the virus, but we are thankful that we get to serve our God and his servants during this time of stress.
