Silence has never stopped evil - it only fuels it.

We've seen it before. Nazi Germany. 9/11. Tehran, 1979.

And now, once again, the world is looking away. As thousands are slaughtered in Syria, as anti-Semitism spreads like wildfire, and as Israel faces existential threats, the silence is deafening.

In this episode, we unpack the ancient and modern battle against the Jewish people - and why the story of Esther, Mordecai, and Purim is more relevant than ever.

The enemy’s tactics haven’t changed. Neither has the need for bold voices to rise up.

Esther had a choice: speak up or stay silent. You have the same choice today.

• Silence feeds evil. History shows that when the world stays quiet, the worst atrocities unfold.
• Israel is under attack - again. The enemies of the Jewish people are always calling for annihilation, and today is no different.
• The Book of Esther is about courage. God’s name is hidden, but His hand is clear - just like today.
• Evil always overplays its hand. Haman thought he had won - until the tables turned.
• This is your Esther moment. Will you speak out, or will you look away?
