Nehemiah 9:38-10:39

Why is it that, with all the advantages we have as Christians…the programs, the services, the books and the conferences…most of us make such small gains in living the Christian life? The answer is that we really don’t want to change and we’re content with where we are. Join Dr. James Boice on The Bible Study Hour as he contrasts our present condition with the state of the Israelites in Nehemiah’s day who embraced change through the winds of revival.

Nehemiah 9:1-37

An awareness of sin has always been at the heart of revival, and that’s where we find God’s people in chapter nine of Nehemiah—an awakening to their sin, genuine sorrow because of their sin and repentance from it. Join Dr. James Boice on The Bible Study Hour as he proves that this revival was from God and not from any manipulation or administration of man.

Nehemiah 7:73b-8:18

William Wilberforce, who led the charge to abolish slavery in the British Empire, finally succeeded after 19 years of tireless defeat. Upon his victory in parliament, he asked his friend, prime minister, William Pitt, “What shall we abolish next?” Nehemiah may have shared the same sentiment as the walls of Jerusalem were completed. Join Dr. James Boice on The Bible Study Hour as he looks at Nehemiah’s next challenge and the real reason for his return to Jerusalem.
