Nehemiah 7-8 "A Hunger For His Word"

Beginning in chapter 7 we'll see a transition in the book of Nehemiah from the physical rebuilding of the walls to the spiritual rebuilding of the people. It's amazing to watch in chapter 8 as the people came in great unity to simply hear God's Word. God's Word is powerful and active and sharper than any two edged sword and we'll see that in action today in our text.
