Nehemiah Rebuilds the Wall: Vision and Leadership — Nehemiah 2–6

This book invites you into the dust, clang, and heartbeat of one of Scripture’s most powerful leadership narratives: Nehemiah 2–6. Set in the mid-fifth century BCE, decades after Jerusalem’s destruction by the Babylonians (586 BCE) and during Persian rule, Nehemiah emerges not as a priest or prophet but as a cupbearer to King Artaxerxes I—a trusted civil servant in the royal court at Susa. His story is earthy and divine, political and prayerful, strategic and spiritual. In our age of disruption, polarized communities, and frayed attention spans, Nehemiah’s path—vision to action, prayer to perseverance—offers a field manual for rebuilding what’s broken in our lives, families, churches, and cities.
