Join Jay Ewing and Perry Marshall as they discuss Nehemiah chapter one. They focus on the importance of prayer, looking at the example of Nehemiah’s own prayer. They highlight praying as a first response and talk about ways we can deepen our own prayers. While the book is named after Nehemiah, they talk about how God is the ultimate hero of this story and emphasizing his role in restoration and redemption.
