Book of Esther (Sc, Nlt)

A beautiful representation of The Book of Esther--a curious and exciting presentation of a story that is a unique intermingling of chance and divine providence.

While its plot appears random, and chance-filled at first, Esther is an invitation to see it as a fateful encounter with God. It is an encouragement to all of us, to watch and to listen--with curiosity and attentiveness--for the implicit workings of God in serendipitous moments. It may not be explicit or how we would expect, but certainly God is there.

Alabaster’s approach reimagines the entire experience of the book. Incorporating images that illuminate the themes and messages of the text, this book will help the reader engage scripture in a fresh way. The Book of Esther in the New Living Translation (NLT) is great for Bible studies, church groups, or individual devotional times.

Alabaster creates with the reader in mind--including careful use of negative space, legible typefaces, and layouts that allow a thoughtful exploration between text and images.

Alabaster combines thoughtful design, artistic photography, and original biblical texts to create inspiring products for the Instagram and TikTok generation. Alabaster has quickly become one of the fastest-growing private companies in California according to Inc Magazine. Alabaster invites you to lean in and take a closer look at beauty and faith, evoking feelings and thoughtful reflection.

Alabaster is the brainchild of Brian Chung and Bryan Ye-Chung, Forbes Next 1000 and Forbes 30 under 30 honorees. After meeting at the University of Southern California, they set out to create books that embody the intersection of art and faith. For Brian and Bryan, the goal was to spark fresh conversations and to design a book that took the richness and beauty of the biblical text and reflects that beauty visually.
