Many studies of the book of Nehemiah focus on the man Nehemiah. But for as much as Nehemiah is the central human character, the book that bears his name is about God, another instance of God working hard to renew his people. After years of apathy, disobedience, and defeat, Israel was a far cry from the lighthouse God meant them to be. So God began doing what God always does: he renewed them. He stirred up and sent Nehemiah to get the job done-to renew his people.

In this short study of Nehemiah, pastor Nate Holdridge considers each movement of Nehemiah's story, relating how the same God who worked for Nehemiah's generation is at work in ours. In each chapter, Nate explains how God reveals himself as the one who renews his people. If you, your family, or your church need revitalization, this book about Nehemiah will help point you to the God who can give it.
