This week, instead of preaching from Esther 1, we used used a process of Visio Divina (Latin for "divine seeing"). We invited people to imagine the scene unfold as we heard Esther 1:1-20 read for us. Each person received one piece of artwork to reflect on before joining together in discussion groups to share thoughts and questions.
Below are the images we looked at together: Queen Vashti Deposed - Ernest Normand Vashti - Sara Beth Baca Vashti Refuses the King's Summons - Edwin Long Queen Vashti - G. Cuffia I Dance Alone by Hannah Garrity
