Modern westernized Christianity doesn’t want you to know what Esther really did.
Veggie Tales turned her into a beauty pageant winner who happened to save some Jews. Hallmark movie femininity with a happy ending and soft lighting.
Garbage
Esther chose violence.
Strategic, calculated, biblical violence.
She didn't ask nicely.
She didn't negotiate.
She didn't write a strongly worded letter to the Persian HR department.
She manipulated a king, orchestrated the execution of her enemies, and watched 75,000 people die because they threatened her people.
That's your biblical heroine.
Not the sanitized Sunday school version. The real one. The one who understood that sometimes love requires bloodshed.
Modern Christianity has castrated every biblical story that might inspire actual courage. We've turned warriors into social workers, revolutionaries into relationship coaches, and queens who chose violence into Pinterest inspiration boards.
"If I perish, I perish."
That wasn't resignation. That was declaration of war.
Esther knew what she was walking into. Knew the odds. Knew she might die. And she decided her people's survival was worth more than her safety.
When was the last time you risked anything real for something that mattered?
When was the last time American Christianity produced someone willing to say "if I perish, I perish" and mean it?
We've been trained to manage our comfort, not risk our lives.
This guide rips apart the Veggie Tales soft serve version
and shows you the real Esther:
- How she used beauty as a weapon
- Why she waited two years to act
- The psychology behind her banquet strategy
- What "if I perish, I perish" actually meant
- How she turned the tables on genocide
- Why her story terrifies comfortable Christians
people have already downloaded it because they're tired of bedtime prayer versions of biblical hero’s.
The guide doesn't ask you to be nice.
It asks you to be effective.
Like Esther.
In a world that wants to destroy everything you love, sometimes the most Christian thing you can do is choose violence. Strategic, purposeful, biblical violence.
Get it now before the comfortable Christians get it banned:
Some stories are too dangerous for Sunday school.
This is one of them.
Writing from the intersection of uncomfortable truth and necessary action.
P.S. If this offends you, you're exactly who needs to read it most. Esther didn't save her people by being inoffensive.
