  • Series: Building a City Within the City (Nehemiah)

The book of Nehemiah is the story of one man who God called to lead a movement to restore the city of Jerusalem. The city of Jerusalem in the book of Nehemiah very closely resembles what the church is supposed to be. A light in a dark world, a voice calling out the culture to live life differently.

Big Idea:

Many people pray too much and have no action. Others plan and plan and never seek God. Nehemiah shows us the balance we are to have between prayer and planning.

Next Steps:

  • Memorize Nehemiah 2:8
  • I’m interested in being baptized on February 20th
