Excellent and timely. I've been thinking that we badly need a "Nehemiah" approach to many of the problems happening in recent times. I'm trying to be a Nehemiah in my own small circle of influence. Hopefully someone will read your post who has the resources and authority to do it for the big problems. Even better would be many "Nehemiahs" fixing things everywhere.
Dr. Phinney, thank you for this about Nehemiah. I always have related to his charge to keep a working implement in one hand and a sword in the other. Both Nehemiah and Ezra had to lead the charge to rebuild the wall of the broken city and I find inspiration in what they did. They had opposition and harrassment but they kept going! I need this!
