Nehemiah 7
Episode Summary
In this episode of Reading the Bible Daily with Dave, Dave Jenkins walks through Nehemiah 7, a chapter that may look like a long list of names but actually reveals God’s faithfulness across generations. As Nehemiah turns from rebuilding the walls to organizing the people, we see that God remembers and values every individual who serves Him, even in roles that seem small or unnoticed.
Nehemiah 7 shows us that the Lord not only restores structures but also restores a people—counted, named, and set apart for His covenant purposes. In Christ, we are reminded that our names are written in heaven, and our service in His Kingdom is eternally significant.
