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.
