What can you do when everything you’ve worked so hard to rebuild starts to crumble? 

In this final episode of Nehemiah, we step into the unforgettable parade of praise around Jerusalem’s newly dedicated wall, where two massive choirs circle the city in worship. Then we witness the cycle of hope and failure repeat.

After 12 years of faithful work—walls rebuilt, worship restored, covenant renewed—Nehemiah returns to Persia. In his absence, Jerusalem falls apart. The temple is defiled by Tobiah the Ammonite, the Levites have abandoned their posts, the Sabbath is desecrated, and forbidden marriages threaten the community's faith. 

This story and the cycle of repeated hope then failure points forward to the only One who can break this cycle: Jesus, the mediator of the New Covenant.

Themes of this podcast:

• Guard what God has entrusted to you by paying attention to subtle compromises that can quietly erode your faith, relationships, or habits.
• Rebuild rhythms of worship and rest when life feels crowded, distracted, or spiritually thin.
• Choose faithfulness even when others do not, trusting that your obedience is seen, remembered, and honored by God.
