WCC| Esther: Guarding Your Gladness | July 20th, 2025

In Esther 5, Haman seems to have it all—power, prestige, influence, and favor with the king and queen. But one man, Mordecai, refusing to bow is enough to rob him of all joy. In this sermon, we take a hard look at how bitterness and pride can blind us to the blessings right in front of us. What do we do when one frustration overshadows all the good in our lives? Discover how unchecked resentment can ruin what should be moments of celebration—and how God's people are called to live with hearts anchored in humility and grace.

The Mixing Bowl Podcast Waushara Community Church A podcast by WCC leaders that aims to help add all the right ingredients to the life of a disciple. The best food, much like the best disciples read through the recipe book (the Bible) and discern what is the right thing to put in. So, our hope is that we can have all sorts of conversations that lead to the right gospel ingredients to make each disciple here at WCC the most Christ-focused God-honoring disciple they can be. Our call is to go and make disciples… how do we do that? What does that look like? What things should we spend our time on? How do we overcome obstacles? We hope to cover all that and more as we search scripture to find what are all the right ingredients to add to the mixing bowl of our lives.
