"State of the Mission" Nehemiah 13

After leading the Israelites for 12 years, Nehemiah had to go leave to Babylon for a short season. When he returned he found the people of God drifted into error and compromised by returning to faithless living. When you stop listening to God's Word, you start living in opposition to God’s will. In this chapter, we even see Nehemiah reference the "mixed multitude" which speaks of those who wanted to associate with the people of God but didn’t want to make a commitment to God. How does this apply to the church today? Here are 5 ways we can be challenged in our Christian walk.
