I think most of us can agree that when a large list of names is in the Bible it is easy to skip by them and move on, but a question we should be asking is why did the author put those names in? It is because God cares about the details! If you have ever been in charge of planning an event, you know there is a moment where you switch from the big picture to the small details because they matter. It matters who was selected to work in the temple. It matters who was to take part in dedicating the wall. It even matters that each priest went through each step of purification before they served in the Temple. Details matter! In Nehemiah 11-12, there were questions around "Who was going to live in Jerusalem?", "Who would be responsible for the Temple?", and even "Who is going to watch over the storerooms?" The great reality is God had long ago decided and been orchestrating things to the point of being able to answer those questions. He long ago put the right people in the right spots and brought their stories to this pinnacle point where they could walk into what God has for them. I believe this is still true today! God is working the details of YOUR story so YOU can walk into what God has for you. The question for the Israelites and for us today is how are we going to respond? Join us this Sunday as we look at how God is actively shaping our lives for where He is leading us and even where He is inviting us to have a few more parties.

Doing God's work can be challenging - especially when the critics get loud. In Nehemiah 4, we see how God's People responded when the opposition grows against the rebuilding. Join us this Sunday as we uncover what is takes to stand firm when adversity threatens to derail God's calling. Passage: Nehemiah 4:1-9.

In Nehemiah 13, we see God’s people drifting into compromise, forgetting His Word, and failing to remain faithful. Yet even in their failures, we’re reminded of our desperate need for a Saviour who can do what we cannot. That Saviour is Jesus Christ, who not only restores what is broken but also gives us lasting hope and victory through His death and resurrection.

Every great work will face great resistance.In Nehemiah 6, we see Nehemiah rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem—tired, dusty, and only halfway through when opposition rose up stronger than ever. Distraction, deception, and discouragement tried to pull him down. But his response remains powerful: “I am doing a great work, and I cannot come down.”What wall are you building today—your marriage, your family, your calling, your ministry, or your marketplace influence? If it matters, it will be tested.This message is a reminder that:* The wall is work* The work is worship* Worship produces joy, which becomes our strengthThis isn't just about building walls—it's about becoming the kind of people God can entrust with vision beyond ourselves.

Prayer is such a powerful thing, yet often when we pray we sound more like toddlers in the toy aisle at the store begging for whatever catches their eye. We can treat prayer as a time for us to make known what we want to God, and in turn we end up feeling that prayer isn’t as powerful as we were told. Prayer is an exercise of faith, calling us to depend on God as the source of all we need. He is the provider, but also He is the Most High God worthy of ALL Praise! Do out prayers reflect that? In Nehemiah 9 we see the people come in sackcloth and with dust on their heads, mourning over their sins and the sins of their ancestors before God. They approach Him humbly in prayer that reflects the heart of Jesus’ prayer in Matthew 6 as we see them praise God for who He is and what He has done. They make requests and admit their sins in true confession. The chapter ends with a unified moment of submission to God as they yield to His authority, protection, care, forgiveness and wisdom. It is clear these people were understanding that prayer was a relational connection with God, rather than a personal list of desires being presented to someone who can give me what I want. Join us this weekend as we dive into prayer together, looking at the powerful tool God has given us for approaching Him. -Pastor Ben Key Verse: Nehemiah 9:3 - "They stood where they were and read from the Book of the Law of the Lord their God for a quarter of the day, and spent another quarter in confession and in worshiping the Lord their God."

In Nehemiah 13, the people of Judah had pledged to honor God with their worship, their Sabbath, and their tithes—but as time passed, those promises were forgotten. Nehemiah returned to find the temple neglected, the Sabbath ignored, and God's covenant disregarded. It's a sobering reminder that spiritual drift often begins with broken commitments. God calls us not just to make promises, but to keep them—faithfully, wholeheartedly, and for His glory.

In Nehemiah's day, a tithe of the people was selected to live in Jerusalem. They were honored to be in the holy city, to repopulate it and to serve God there. The church today needs to revive the same heart of servitude, and when it does, great things in God's work will be accomplished.

The word “revival” may bring to mind a late night meeting in a tent, full of loud preaching, “AMEN”’s and altar calls, but is that truly what revival is? Those meetings have a purpose, and have led to the salvation of many, but true revival is not a move or service of man. It is a work of the Holy Spirit as He moves on the hearts of people with conviction. Passion for the word of God grows, sins are confessed and removed, people are drawn to Christ for the first time. Revival is something we desperately need in our community and nation! Throughout history true revival was always sparked, sustained, and strengthened through prayer. People praying for God to move, and continuing to pray. Praying for revival in their own hearts leading to revival around them. In Nehemiah we have seen a man of prayer who desires to see revival in the people. A revival of their dedication to God, and in chapter 8 we see just that begin to happen! Ezra reads from the law, teachers explain understanding to the people, the people gathered together begin to worship God as they face the conviction of sin with the celebration of God’s provision! It is a beautiful thing to see happen, and I believe can, and must, happen again in our church and community. Join us this week as we look through the revival in Nehemiah 8, prayerfully seeking God to revive us as well! -Pastor Ben Key Verse: Nehemiah 8:6 - "Ezra praised the Lord, the great God; and all the people lifted their hands and responded, “Amen! Amen!” Then they bowed down and worshiped the Lord with their faces to the ground." For Scripture, notes, upcoming events, & more: http://bible.com/events/49451007

In Nehemiah 12, the people of God gathered to dedicate the rebuilt wall with an unforgettable celebration. They prepared for worship, purifying themselves and the city. They participated in worship, marching together in unity on the walls. They praised in worship, lifting their voices with instruments and songs of thanksgiving. And they provided for worship, ensuring the ongoing support for God's house and those who served in it. This passage reminds us that true celebration isn't just about joy—it's about intentionally preparing, actively participating, loudly praising, and faithfully providing for the work of God.

When God's work gains momentum, expect opposition. In Nehemiah 4–6, we see external attacks, internal strife, and personal threats—yet through prayer, wisdom, and courage, Nehemiah stays faithful. So can we.

Nehemiah 9 | Trusting God | Johnny Kurcina | August 3, 2025 In Nehemiah 9, we see the people of Israel go through a confession of their sin after the Feast of Booths, as well as a prayer from Ezra, going through the Old Testament, showing God’s blessings followed by Israel’s unfaithfulness. Johnny talks about […]

We continue our study of the Spirit of God. Last week, we focused attention on the ministry of the Spirit of God among the Jewish people, the nation of Israel. As it is among believers today, the Spirit of God dwelt in the midst of his people Israel.The question then comes to mind, "How or in what manner did the Spirit of God dwell in Israel's midst?" In Nehemiah's prayer, after the wall around Jerusalem was completed, and the people were celebrating the Sukkot, the Feast of Tabernacles, in praise to the Lord, he says, "You gave your good Spirit to instruct them..." (Nehemiah 9:20).  It would seem that it was by the Spirit that rested upon Moses, that the "good Spirit" instructed the people of Israel.In addition to instructing the people, the Spirit of God at times filled some with strength, courage and might. Sometimes the Spirit moved upon individuals to equip them with skills of design and craftmanship.More could be said on this, but all of the working of the Spirit of God presented in the Hebrew Scriptures was for the purpose of pointing us toward Israel's Messiah upon whom the Spirit would reside without measure. Isaiah writes of Messiah that He is the one upon whom the seven-fold fullness of the Spirit would rest. He states: "And the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord" (Isaiah 11:2).And lastly, in Isaiah 61:1 it is the Spirit of the Lord who empowers Messiah to fulfill His redemption ministry. He states: "The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the poor, he has sent me to bind up the broken hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound."Whether in the Hebrew Scriptures or in the New Covenant Scriptures, the work of the Spirit of God is to draw attention away from Himself, and unto Messiah. However He manifested himself among Israel in the Hebrew Scriptures, it was for the purpose of providing the Chosen People with a picture of the One they were to look for who would bring to fruition all promises made to them. YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/1wRZEp9t52YSend us a text

Distractions are everywhere—phones, sports, money, entertainment. They’re not all bad, but they can pull us away from the purpose God has for us. In Nehemiah 6:3, Nehemiah says, “I am doing a great work, and I cannot come down.” What if we lived with that kind of focus? Join us this weekend as we dive into Nehemiah 6 and learn how to stay focused on the mission God has given us. - Pastor Ben For Scripture, notes, upcoming events, & more: http://bible.com/events/49451001

In Nehemiah 8, we see how the Israelites gathered eagerly to hear and understand God's Word after returning from exile. Their experience teaches us that truly understanding Scripture leads to reverence, conviction, joy, and spiritual hunger. When we comprehend God's Word, it transforms us—moving us from sorrow over sin to the strength found in God's joy. To grow in understanding, we need regular reading, proper explanation, a willing heart, and practical application. Making Scripture a priority isn't just about knowledge; it's about allowing God's truth to change how we live.

In Nehemiah 11:1–2, we see a group of faithful people stepping into an often-overlooked but vital role: living in Jerusalem, the holy city, to help restore it. Some were chosen, some volunteered, but all served where God planted them. This message challenges us to be faithful where we are — to see our location, position, and community as places where God has planted us to serve His purposes.

In Nehemiah 5, we see how Nehemiah cared for the flock and stood up to the mistreatment of the Jews. Nehemiah called the nobles to step back into integrity with God’s word. God calls US to know his word and to walk in obedience as well. Is God calling you to restore to him today? For Scripture, notes, upcoming events, & more: http://bible.com/events/49451000

In Nehemiah 10, God's people pledged to live fully committed to Him—separating from the world and giving their best in worship, time, and obedience. In this message, we'll be challenged to do the same: to give God our best and encourage others to walk in full devotion.

Nehemiah 3 | Building Walls | Dean Miller | July 13, 2025 In Nehemiah 3, we read a detailed account of who was responsible for rebuilding every part of the wall in Jerusalem. Dean compares the rebuilding of the physical wall to the rebuilding of their spiritual wall, and how people from all trades worked […]

It is amazing what can be accomplished through the united mission of a group of people, isn’t it? When we are united together there is strength, focus and purpose keeping the project driven until it’s finished. In Nehemiah 3 we get to see the people begin the work of repairing the walls. And let me tell you, they were UNITED! Each had a section to strive on, and their purpose was clear. Over a very short time they took the city from a disgrace to a protected and honorable condition again. They worked where they lived, worked, played, and were sent in order to make this happen. We have a mission in front of us. It’s where we live, in our homes and neighborhoods. It's where we work with clients and colleagues. It's where we go fro recreation with friends. And It's where God has sent us into our community, and around the world. We need to unite in order to accomplish it! Join us Sunday for one of our worship services to see how the work done in Nehemiah 3 gives us a good picture of how we can walk united for God’s glory and His mission! -Pastor Ben Key Verse - Nehemiah 1:8 - "Remember the instruction you gave your servant Moses, saying, ‘If you are unfaithful, I will scatter you among the nations,'" For Scripture, notes, upcoming events, & more: http://bible.com/events/49450998

In Nehemiah we hear how 3Fs almost kept him from his great work: Fog, Fire and Fear

In life, you don't get to choose between building and battling—you're called to do both. In Nehemiah 4, we discover how to keep building the future while fighting off the fear, distraction, and opposition that threaten to stop us. Whether it's clearing the rubble of your past, guarding the vulnerable places in your life, or learning to trust God as your ultimate defender, we are called to stay strong in the fight and faithful in the work. Don't drop your shovel. Don't sheathe your sword. The wall goes up when you show up.I. Buried in the Rubble (v. 10)II. Threats in the Shadows (vv. 11-12)III. Guard the Gaps (vv. 13-18)IV. Backup on the Battlefield (vv. 19-23)Talk with God: Meditate on Hebrews 4:12 and ask the Lord for the discipline and courage to take up your sword—the Word—as you step onto the battlefield each day.Talk with others: Go to battle in prayer for your Connect Group or circle of believers and ask them how you can guard the gaps and provide backup for them this week.Talk with kids: How do the Commandments teach us to love God and people?

Every meaningful pursuit faces a moment of resistance. Distraction, intimidation, or deception threaten to knock us off course. In Nehemiah 3, we find a blueprint for staying the course through opposition, grounded in clarity of purpose, spiritual discernment, and reliance on God's strength. Pastor Kirk Gentzel challenges believers to live with unwavering resolve, not just through willpower, but by walking closely with God, who empowers resilience through His Spirit. When the pressure mounts, stay on the wall.

Storms—whether natural or personal—can be loud, unsettling, and even destructive. But they are not without purpose. In both nature and our spiritual lives, storms often precede growth. They soften hard ground, spread seeds, and prepare the way for new life to emerge.How we view storms is often shaped by our past experiences, but Scripture shows us they can also awaken us to purpose. In Nehemiah 1, the destruction of Jerusalem deeply burdened Nehemiah. That burden moved him to prayer, repentance, and ultimately, action. He didn't just survive the storm—he let it stir him to rebuild what was broken.Many of us may be in a “transition” season—caught between pain and purpose. It's often the most intense part of the journey, but it's also the moment just before new life is born. Don't let the weight of the storm discourage you. Let it awaken you to what God is calling you to carry and birth.Let's be a church that leans into prayer, stands on God's promises, and rises to rebuild what the enemy tried to tear down. Storms may shake us, but they can also shape us for what's next.Let's rise and build.For more info, you can go to our website, check us out on Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube.

Resilience begins in the space between hardship and what happens next. When fear takes hold and hope feels distant, it becomes easy to stay stuck in brokenness. But identity is not defined by trauma, and the future is not limited by the past. Courage often comes from outside through truth, community, and the strength to take one faithful step at a time. Encouragement can fill empty places, and honest conviction can break the grip of fear and passivity. In Nehemiah 2:11-20, we see that even in the ruins, restoration is possible.
