Today’s challenge was how to set up our speaker (Lee Coate) for a win by effectively communicating the entire story of Esther in 30 minutes or less in an engaging and entertaining way.  We decided to use four playing cards as a teaching tool, each printed poster size.

King Xerxes was the King of Clubs

Queen Vashti was the Queen of Diamonds

Esther was the Queen of Hearts

Haman was The Joker.

During the bumper, our stage manager placed all of the cards on easels facing backwards.  Lee turned each card around to reveal the image when he was ready for it in his message.

These cards proved to be an effective way to communicate the entirety of the story in 30 minutes, as planned. Plus, it fit our Vegas crowd pretty well. 🙂
