REBUILDING STARTS WITH GOD

“When I heard these things, I sat down and wept.” — Nehemiah 1:4

There are times when life feels like it’s in pieces. Nehemiah’s story begins in that place. He heard of his city’s ruins, turned to God in prayer, and found the strength to rebuild. At New Hope in Clovis, we’re walking through this story together, asking what God might be restoring in our own lives.

JULY 20 - SEPTEMBER 7

Nehemiah lived far from home, but his heart was still tied to the people of Jerusalem. When he learned what had happened, he mourned. He prayed. Then he stepped forward in faith.

This series follows his journey through prayer, planning, opposition, community, and worship. It invites us to look honestly at the broken places around us and remember that God is near in the work of rebuilding.

TIMELESS WISDOM FOR TODAY’S CHURCH

Explore the rich truths and practical guidance found in Paul’s letters to the early churches—encouraging us to live with faith, hope, and love.

Paul’s letters to the churches ending in “-ians” are some of the most beloved and transformative books of the Bible. Written to guide early believers, these letters are filled with timeless lessons on unity, perseverance, humility, and the power of the Gospel. They challenge us to grow deeper in our faith and to live as Christ’s representatives in a complex world.
