Episode Details

The theme of this study is prayer and boldness in leadership. Nehemiah starts with Nehemiah’s deep sorrow after learning Jerusalem’s walls and gates remain ruined, leaving the city vulnerable. As the king’s cupbearer, Nehemiah seeks God’s help through prayer and fasting before asking King Artaxerxes for permission to rebuild the wall. With the king’s favour, Nehemiah begins preparing for the mission. Opposition arises, but Nehemiah stays focused, demonstrating bold, God-centred leadership and mobilizing others for the task.
