Hey there, Reader! As we come close to the end of our study in the book of Nehemiah, I want to draw your attention to a powerful lesson from Nehemiah Chapter 12 - the importance of worship in the rebuilding process. In today's video teaching, we unpack how Nehemiah establishes a standard of worship for the holy people. Holy people worship. They express their thanksgiving through worship and dedicate themselves to the God who helps them complete the work He calls them to. Worship and the completion of God's work go hand in hand. When God does something great in our lives or brings something to completion, we are to worship Him. All through the process, we worship, because that is what we were created to do. I encourage you to watch the full teaching on Nehemiah Chapter 12 and continue the conversation in the comments. And if you haven't already, be sure to download the companion study guide to enhance your personal study time! Remember, you are part of a holy history, whether you are continuing it or just beginning. Let's dedicate ourselves to carrying His presence and worshipping Him every step of the way.

But sometimes growth stalls not because of a lack of information, but a lack of connection and accountability. We don’t just need more access to...
Hey Reader, As we move through Day 26 of Threads, I want to pause and remind you of something simple but powerful: gratitude is worship. No matter what this week looks like for you; whether you’re surrounded by loved ones, resting quietly, or just trying to make it through, God is present. He’s weaving goodness into every detail, even the ones that don’t make sense yet. This week, take a moment to breathe, reflect, and thank Him — not just for what’s gone right, but for His constant presence...
Hey Reader, In Day 24 of Threads, we’re reminded of one of the most beautiful and comforting images of Jesus — our Good Shepherd. In John 10:11–14, Jesus says, “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.” These words reveal the heart of a Savior who doesn’t simply watch over His flock from a distance, but who steps into our lives with tenderness, guidance, and sacrifice. This moment in Scripture connects all the way back to David, the shepherd-king who penned...
