INSIGHT

Every Believer Has A Place On The Wall

  • Nehemiah 3 emphasizes universal participation: everyone worked on the wall 'next to' their home.
  • Greear highlights the list's structure showing ordinary neighbors, daughters, and unknown names all contributing side-by-side.
ADVICE

Stop Asking If You're Called Start Asking Where

  • Do discern where God wired you to serve instead of asking if you're called; the question is where and how.
