Nehemiah 1:1-3 text
Report: Somethings is wrong here.
Nehemiah 1:4 text
Reaction: Weep and Mourn.

Our hearts should be genuinely distressed over things that grieve God’s heart.

Personal Level: Is our heart deeply moved for things that are broken?

Community Level: Do we see where we as a faith community are coming up short?

Kingdom Level: Do we recognize where things just aren’t right in the kingdom of God?

Our hearts should be genuinely distressed over things that grieve God’s heart.
