WEEK 1: Who Am I?
(Identity before Assignment)

Before you can step into your mission, you have to understand your identity. In Esther 2:5–18, we see that Esther had two names but only one calling, reminding us that while the world tries to define us, Scripture teaches that identity is received, not achieved. This week focuses on rejecting false labels and embracing who God says you are—chosen, adopted, and designed on purpose—because your purpose is to glorify God, and your mission is how you live that out right now; and it all starts with knowing who you are, because you are positioned for such a time as this.

WEEK 2: Where Am I? (Recognizing Your Season)

Have you ever felt overlooked, unseen, or stuck in a season that doesn’t seem to matter? In Week 2 of For Such a Time as This, we discover through the story of Mordecai that hidden seasons are not wasted seasons. While sitting quietly at the king’s gate, Mordecai remained faithful in ordinary moments—and God used that faithfulness to position him for extraordinary purpose later. This message will encourage you to trust that God is still working even when no one notices, reminding us that faithfulness in obscurity is often preparation for future influence. You may feel hidden, but you are not forgotten. God sees your obedience, your consistency, and your endurance—and He is positioning you for such a time as this.
