Day 13: Nehemiah 13~Not Your Fairytale Ending
Hey Reader, The ending of Nehemiah is not quite what we expected! After 12 chapters of rebuilding the wall and seeing God's hand at work, chapter 13 feels like a harsh dose of reality. When Nehemiah returns to Jerusalem to find the people in a worse condition then when he left them, He is furious. His responds should lead us to examine ourselves and our own spiritual integrity. In Nehemiah 13, we unpack some hard but necessary truths that will bless you if you watch all the way through. Friend, this may be a bit of a challenging word but if there are areas of compromise in your life, today is the day to deal with them. You don't have to do it in your own strength - check out the full video here for encouragement and prayer. I'm cheering you on as you pursue undivided loyalty to our amazing God! P.S. Need help identifying areas of compromise or establishing holy habits? Grab the Nehemiah Bible Study Guide for helpful self-evaluation questions and next steps. It's never too late to align your life with God's standards!

Don't underestimate it. Last week, we sat with David on the floor of Psalm 51. We watched him reach for God not after he had gotten himself together, but...
Reader, June mornings have a particular quality to them — the light comes in slower, the day hasn't crowded in yet, and there's still a little room to breathe before the world catches up with you. I hope you're reading this in one of those moments. Today you’ll open Psalm 51 and begin. Before we go any further into this week, I want to give you something that will change how you read every Psalm in it. Psalm 51 was not written in a moment of spiritual inspiration. It was written in the...
Hey Reader, Before we open Psalm 51 on June 1, I want to tell you something about the people who wrote Psalms 51–100 — because context isn't just background information. Context is the thing that turns a beautiful verse into a living word that reaches into your actual life. Here's who you'll be hearing from over the next 60 days.
