This book follows Nehemiah. It narrates how a beautiful woman Esther who becomes queen after the formal queen was deposed by her king.?

The lesson her will be how people should sacrifice and take the risk to help people in their distress even in our absolute comfort.

The book of Daniel.

Another favorite with excellence. Daniel a young man excellently educated and rose to the highest office in the Babylonian and Persian governments. This man and his friends likewise educated had faith in God when the culture around them eschewed righteousness. They face intense persecution but ultimately acquitted by God in each instance. The end part reveals how God reveals to Daniel about future events and gives hope to the Israelis. This book will encourage you to be steadfast in the Lord as a leader or aspire to be a leader.
