We close out our message series in the last two chapters of Nehemiah, taking a look into how the book ends and what we can learn from how Nehemiah handled the situation.

With 2 weeks left in our Nehemiah series, we're getting ready to close it out by looking at chapter 10 and the curse and oath Israel commits themselves to by not neglecting the house of God.

We're in Nehemiah chapter 9 for a history lesson of the history of the Israelite people, remembering God's faithfulness and their wickedness, yet still He kept His covenant. We also look into Exodus 32 and Mark 8 to tie things together.

We continue in the book of Nehemiah, now in chapter 8, and take a look into the Feast of Booths (Tabernacles) that was held in Jerusalem; Pastor Smith leads us to reference John 7 when Jesus celebrated that feast also, and we close out by circling to James 1.

In this long - but important - message for our 'house' here at True Life Church, we look into Nehemiah chapter 8 as we explore (and will begin to experiment with) reminders that there is a day to keep holy for the Lord.

One of our Elders, David Allen, steps in to give a message on the "upside down kingdom". Jesus came to establish a kingdom, and if we're open to it, it won't look like we'd expect it to.

On this Easter Sunday, we take a look at 7 parallels where we're at in the book of Nehemiah that point us to Christ. We canvas Genesis to Revelation, Psalms to Romans and the Gospels to paint the picture of what Jesus on the cross really means for us.

On this Palm Sunday, we continue in our Nehemiah series and learn from some important financial decisions he had to make. We also take a hard look at what WE are building right now here at True Life Church and cast a vision into the future.

In part 5 of our Nehemiah series, we look at some hurdles he went through as they rebuilt the wall around Jerusalem: the problems were soon realized to be a heart issue INSIDE the walls instead of the enemies outside them. Likewise, are OUR hearts ripe or rotten? We also look at 1 Samuel 16, Genesis 2 & 3, Romans 11 as well as some practical gardening science to tie it all together.

Part 4 of the series leads us into chapter 4 of Nehemiah, where we learn how we're not just meant to build OR fight, but to do both - as we remember the Lord and take a stand for our families.
