👑⚔️ Heroes vs. Villains: Bold Beauty Esther vs. Slimy Scoundrel Haman
📖 Bible Story: Book of Esther 3–8 — Esther and Haman
🌟 Bible Point: I can speak up to help others because God helps me.
💪 Life Truth: God gives us courage to stand up for what is right and help others.
🧠 Memory Verse: Romans 12:21: “Don’t let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good.”

Esther was faced with a difficult choice. Haman had a wicked plan to harm God's people, and Esther knew that speaking up could be dangerous. But instead of staying silent, Esther trusted God and courageously spoke to the king. God used Esther's bravery to protect many people!
Sometimes we see someone being left out, treated unfairly, or needing help. Like Esther, God can help us be brave and speak up for others.

❓ What made Esther decide to speak up anyway?
❓ How did God use Esther to help others?
❓ Have you ever seen someone being left out or treated unfairly?
