Nehemiah: Let Us Arise and Build

There are hundreds of books on leadership, but one of the best was written in the fifth century B.C. by a cupbearer who became a builder.

Nehemiah: Let Us Arise and Build is a 12-lesson Courageous Living workbook by Wilson Adams on the book of Nehemiah.

How This Study Helps

Churches need leaders who pray, plan, and keep going through criticism and opposition. Many capable Christians never step forward because they aren't sure they have what it takes.

This study shows how one man's faith inspired a nation. It follows Nehemiah on his knees, from cupbearer to bricklayer, through criticism, threats, and intimidation, to revival, renewed commitment, and the fight against compromise. It's a practical study of leadership for elders, deacons, and every member.
