Have you ever caught yourself saying one thing but doing another? We’re often quick to call out hypocrisy in others, but sometimes it hits close to home. In Nehemiah 13, we see God’s people, who had promised to live faithfully, falling back into old, destructive patterns. It’s a painful reminder of how easily we can slip and how our own hearts can grow cold—like stone—toward God’s ways.

From Series: " Nehemiah"

Each one of us has a good work to do. We may not see it yet, but it’s often right there in front of our eyes. For Nehemiah, it was a crumbled wall. For you, it could be an injustice in the world, or a need you see what no one else does. During this series, we will learn how Nehemiah responded to his own calling and learn how we can change our own world just by leaning into the unique calling that God has put in front of each of us. This six-week series will take a closer look at the good work God called Nehemiah to do and show us how his story can be an example in our own lives. God has called us all to a good work in our world, in our neighborhood, or in our family. This series will challenge us to find our purpose, understand our opposition, and give us the tools and encouragement to live out our calling.
