After Nebuchadnezzar sacked the city of Jerusalem in 586 B.C., its walls and gates laid in ruin for over 140 years. When Nehemiah, cupbearer to the king of Persia, found out about it, he was heartbroken.
God raised him up to challenge His people to set about restoring what had been devastated. They responded faithfully and rebuilt the walls in 52 days. Recent events have impacted churches in ways not seen in decades—or longer. We now have an unprecedented opportunity to pivot and come out of this stronger and more focused than ever before.
RISE UP is a 52-day challenge for God’s people to rise up, take strength
from Him, and forge into the future with clarity and confidence.
