    Nehemiah was a man of prayer. A man with a heavy heart because something in his world was unchanged. Nehemiah 1:1-4

    The Bible is full of them, from Moses all the way to Paul, every single one of them changed their world around them. I have many favourite stories in the Bible but the most amazing one I have read yet is about a man named Nehemiah. Nehemiah wasn’t a priest, prophet, warrior, or a king, he was ...read more
