    Jesus challenged us to be as wise as serpents. In this message we will learn from the attacks on the Jews in the book of Nehemiah, and use it as inspiration to aggressively go after the lost.

    Wise as Serpents In our messages so far in the book of Nehemiah we have been talking about the building of walls to keep the enemy out. Today we are going to switch places with the enemy and talk about how to take down walls or overcome them. I think we can learn some things from the enemy of our ...read more
