Rev. Dr. Reed Lessing, professor of Theology & Director of the Center for Biblical Studies at Concordia University, St. Paul, MN joins Rev. Brady Finnern to conclude our study of Nehemiah 13.

Nehemiah’s main concern was the faith of God’s people. He fights the idolatry and injustice of the land Remember--call to mind and act. All the laws commanded in chapter 10 were already broken. For the sake of faith people he brings reform in dramatic ways, which is a reminder for us that there are times we need to make dramatic changes in order to stay in faith. Nehemiah did all of his work understanding that the LORD remembered him according to the greatness of His steadfast love. This steadfast love is ours as well in Christ and in this love we continue to fight the good fight of staying steadfast in Him. “Lord God, remember me according to Your steadfast love. Give us faith to trust in You and help us to break our idols to stay in Your favor. In Christ, Amen”
