It All Starts With Pain
(Nehemiah 1) As we begin our journey considering Nehemiah's story and what God is prompting us to consider rebuilding, we look at chapter 1. Here Nehemiah is hurting and broken, and we learn the important lesson that when rebuilding is coming, we need to start by feeling the pain of loss. Join us as Gavin unpacks this challenging and important lesson for us today.

What does it look like for us to start something from a place of suffering? While there are God-given dreams and apostolic endeavours that start with a blank slate, others are prompted from the ruins of “what was” – idealised histories, or broken relationship – and perhaps require a different approach. In this short series we explore the experience of Nehemiah and how his approach and God’s faithfulness birth a renewed era for a troubled nation.
