Cannon Beach Bible CANNON BEACH — Cannon Beach Bible Church has announced the release of “The Presence of God,” a new book about the Old Testament Book of Esther, by Cannon Beach pastor and author, Steve Hudgik. “People tend to ignore Esther,” Hudgik said. “They treat it as a nice story about a beautiful queen who saves her fellow Jews from extermination. But, once you know the background, you’ll see this story is not about Esther, it is about God. It is a story that spans over 500 years as God and Satan play out a ‘chess match’ in which the survival of mankind hangs in the balance.” Hudgik is serving as a church plant- ing missionary at the church. This is his fourth Christian book, and the second in the church’s Quick Commentary series.
