ESTHER: Bible Camp Theme or VBS Curriculum

This Bible camp theme and VBS curriculum is based on the Old Testament story of Esther. The biblical story of Esther is a fascinating story of faith, courage, and redemption. A minority Jewish orphan girl becomes the unlikely queen of Persia and must risk everything to save her suffering people from annihilation.

The key passage is found in Esther 4:14, when Mordecai says to Esther, “And who knows whether you have not come to the kingdom for such a time as this?” Esther realizes she has been made for this moment and her bravery shines as she goes on to save many people from destruction and harm. YOU were made for such a time as this! God shaped you to be able to overcome insurmountable odds in your generation.

This resource was designed as a camp curriculum for children 8-12 years of age. Can also serve as a 5-week Sunday morning children's ministry teaching series or Backyard Bible club.
