Nehemiah: A Portrait of Godly Leadership

In the 7/7/19 sermon, Elder Michael Gowens offers an overview of the book of Nehemiah, and the emerging portrait of his leadership traits. This relatively obscure Jewish figure played an integral role at a time of great need in the post-exilic history of the nation of Israel. Among his many impressive characteristics, one stands out above the rest. Nehemiah was a man devoted to prayer and the glory of God. Christians today, regardless of the particular role in which they may function in a role of leadership, would do well to take their cue from this pious man.
