External opposition vs. internal compromise

It's hardly surprising that Nehemiah faced opposition in rebuilding the wall. But what is particularly unsettling is that the most dangerous opposition came not from outside but from inside. In this week's message from Nehemiah 5, Pastor J.D. shows us how compromise on the inside is a far bigger threat to the work of God than critics on the outside. So how can we guard against such a grave threat? The truth is, the heart of leadership that refuses to bow to compromise is found, first and foremost, in a posture of awe and reverence before God.
