- Stage Two: Assimilation (Join Church)—from found to following
- Stage Three: Maturation (Grow Strong)—from following to standing firm
- Stage Four: Reproduction (Lead Others)—from standing firm to leading others

Join us for our Nehemiah Series: "Daring Response To Dark Days!" Catch a magnificent glimpse of God's people on mission, as, together, they withstand intense opposition & rock hell on its heels with an ambitious plan to advance God's Kingdom in their day. Sermon #16 lands the plane on this series with a final look at the story of Nehemiah. This book ends on two contrasting notes; a pin-ultimate high note joyfully celebrating the dedication of the wall, before closing on a note of frustration. The closing chapter asks the question many of us may ask in the face of challenges and disappointment, "Has my life's work been in vain?" Nehemiah offers a plea to God to show him favor for his life of sacrifice. God sees Nehemiah. He sees His people.

We take a 2 week break, midway through our series on Nehemiah, to look at I Thessalonians 5:12-18 and the theme of "Healthy Church."
How do you see yourself within the Body of Christ? Are you someone who primarily leads? or needs? This two part series provides a general corrective to the false dichotomy (imbalance) in many churches where 20% of the people do 80% of the work. This leads to consumerism & stunted growth on the one hand, with burn out & bitterness on the other hand.
