Ezra and Nehemiah: Rebuilding What’s Ruined

with Rev. Dr. Iain Duguid

Tuesday, August 9, 2022

1 hour

W e are surrounded by news of destruction. The evidence of it is everywhere – lives ruined from suffering and weakness throughout the world, but also in our own families, our churches, and perhaps especially ourselves.

Has God forgotten about His redemptive plan? 

The story of the Old Testament books Ezra and Nehemiah play out against a similar backdrop of ruin. There’s a ruined city, a ruined house of worship, ruined homes — ruined life with God. As is often the case for us, the wreckage was largely their own fault. They needed not only a new physical place of worship but more importantly a new heart to worship God. 

Much is rebuilt, but only after years of frustration, bureaucratic delays, disappointments, let downs, and so on. Welcome to the real world where so much of our lives and ministry take place.

Join Rev. Dr. Iain Duguid (PhD, Cambridge), Old Testament scholar, as he uses the books of Ezra and Nehemiah to demonstrate God’s faithfulness to unfaithful people to deliver them from the depths of ruin and decay into new life in Him. 

In this FREE live webinar, Iain Duguid gives us insight on:

  • Our need for redemption and the lamenting of sin 
  • Battling discouragement and facing opposition 
  • Entering into faithful worship, even as we await full restoration 

If you are discouraged and need renewed hope in the Lord, this webinar will help you discover that Jesus is the one who rebuilds and brings new life where there is ruin and decay.
