Nehemiah 11:20

You might not be able to change the whole world, but you can change your part of it. What’s your purpose? What’s your story? What will God do through you? Find out through the experiences of Nehemiah in this Life.Church Bible Plan, accompanying Pastor Craig Groeschel’s message series, The Good Work.

In this 13 day plan, you will study the book of Nehemiah, which highlights the idea of Christ vs. culture and the collision of God and government. We hope you’ll learn how to be a spirit-filled leader and persevere in God’s call for your life despite opposition from others.

Nehemiah and Esther stepped into God’s purpose in uncertain times. Nehemiah rebuilt Jerusalem’s walls, while Esther risked everything to save her people. Through their stories, we see God’s sovereign hand and our call to build with faith. This study reminds us that God places us on purpose for His plans. Join us as we explore how He uses ordinary people for extraordinary kingdom work.

Along with Ezra, Nehemiah chronicles the post-exilic history of Israel. Nehemiah's leadership helped resettle Israelites in the land and rebuild Jerusalem's walls. However, Nehemiah's greatest legacy was a renewed national identity rooted in repentance of sin and obedience to God.
