Nehemiah and the Great Wall - Part 1

Heather Crespin

About this episode

Nehemiah was known for his strong faith in God and his devotion to his Jewish heritage. When he heard of the damage in Jerusalem, he was very concerned about the Jewish people and the city itself. He received God's calling to oversee the rebuilding of the city walls. This story shows us the incredible impact that one person can have.

We are reading Nehemiah chapters 1 through 6.
