“Challenge Accepted” traces Nehemiah’s journey from hearing about Jerusalem’s broken walls to leading God’s people in rebuilding and renewal. Through his example, we learn how to face the challenges in our own lives by praying boldly, planning wisely, and persevering courageously in the strength God provides. Whether you’re rebuilding something broken or stepping into a new calling, this message invites you to see your life as part of God’s great work—and to refuse to “come down” from what He’s given you to do.

When God’s people stop building, His purpose doesn’t stop calling. In Ezra 5, the Israelites are stirred once again to rebuild God’s temple — and to rediscover the power of obedience, endurance, and truth. God is still calling us to get back to work, trusting that His eye is on us and His Spirit is with us every step of the way.

Opposition, pressure, and delay can tempt any believer to give up — but God calls us to stay the course. In this message from Ezra 4, Pastor Jeff McNicol shows how God’s people refused compromise, endured under pressure, and trusted His timing through long seasons of waiting. Their story reminds us that God’s purposes never stall, even when ours do.
