Nehemiah 1 Pastor Phil explains how Nehemiah responded to the poor state of Jerusalem by pausing to mourn, taking time to pray, and then taking action. So too, we should respond to the works God puts in our hearts by taking the time to pray and then taking action. We can also learn from Nehemiah that we should study the Word, memorize the Word, learn the Word, pray the Word and live the Word.

From Series: "Prepare the Way (Foundations Series: A Year Through the Bible)"

What is the foundation for your life? We are influenced by many different things in our culture: the books and articles we read, the TV shows we watch, the radio shows we listen to. We are influenced by our family, friends, co-workers, and acquaintances. Often time, we fill up our whole day with all these voices and opinions but never take time to stop and hear from God. Over the next year (September 2020-September 2021) we will encourage everyone in the church to stop each day to read God’s Word, listen to what it says, and apply it to our lives. You can purchase a Foundations Devotional through the church office at a discounted price (contact the office by e-mail: office@npbc.us). Please join us during this series by following along in the reading and actively listening during the sermons. You can also find the sermons to follow along with the series.
