A while back, I bumped into an older lady who recognized me as the pastor of Life.Church. She explained that she was a member of another church in town. Although I didn't know her pastor well, I said that I'd heard a lot of great things about him. She responded, "Wow! I can't believe you're speaking well of the competition." Shocked, I explained that in no way did I view her church as a competitor. She shot back, "Well, your church is definitely our competition. We're fighting to make sure we get as many members as we can before you and other churches get them all." |

Memorizing Scripture is one of the most effective means to engage with God's Word and always have a verse available to you when you need it most! Memorized Scripture allows you to dwell continuously on a passage throughout the day. In an age when Bibles are readily available, it might seem that the work it takes to memorize Scripture is not worth the effort. Most of us don't memorize much of anything, so why should we memorize the Bible? Didn't people in the past need to memorize Scripture because the Bible was not readily available? In reality, there are numerous spiritual reasons for Scripture memorization. |

The Nehemiah Code dives into a theme that will resonate deeply with a wide variety of readers - insight during hard times, help to start again, and encouragement to rebuild a life. |
