Sermons on Nehemiah
Remember the Gospel – Nehemiah 13
The book of Nehemiah ends on a note of sadness and uncertainty as the people have failed in following God, again. This shows our desperate need for Christ as the Old Testament is silent for the next 400 years until Jesus comes.

God Always Keeps His Promises – Nehemiah 1 (Introduction)
This sermon from Nehemiah 1 is the beginning of a new series, “Nehemiah: Building a Life of Faith.” We often think of God like we think of people–that He does not keep His promises because He doesn’t care, or because He forgot, or even that He was unable to. Nehemiah reminds us that God always keeps His promises. When the people of God work together and pray together for His glory, God’s Kingdom is built!
