What does our region need to see? The same thing that ancient Asia Minor needed to see. People who pointed to Jesus by being good, responding differently, and living life under the Shepherd.

We are all prone to drift away from where God calls us to be. What can help anchor us in place?

As God's people are convicted by His Word in Chapter 8, the next two chapters show us what they do with that conviction.

God's Word transforms God's People. Have you experienced the life-changing power of the bible?

We want to go big for God's Kingdom, building section by section with the opportunities God has given us. But how we build and who we are becoming as we labour is just as important as what we are building. Join us as we pull out 4 building tips from Nehemiah.

You'll probably be remembered for what you lived for (at least for a while, until everyone forgets you!) But what will God remember you for? That should shape how you live.

As Nehemiah oversees the rebuilding of the Jerusalem walls, the people are keen. But opposition hits, and the initial excitement turns into exhaustion. As we build our lives on Jesus, there are a few key lessons we can take from this passage.

God doesn't just want us to believe that He keeps His promises, He wants us to live courageously, expecting Him to keep His promises as we seek to build His eternal kingdom.

Jesus calls us to follow Him, no matter the cost. What happens when this threatens our personal happiness?

Sometimes we see things that change us. And for the disciples - they saw Jesus risen from the dead - and they were changed forever. Their grief turned to joy, their fear turned to peace, and their doubt turned to faith and worship - showing us that when people encounter the risen Jesus for themselves, they are transformed. Have you been changed by him?
