The Nehemiah Code Bible Study Guide: It's Never Too Late for a New Beginning

You can have a new beginning.

In this six-session video Bible study (DVD/digital downloads sold separately), O.S. Hawkins, bestselling author of the Code series, draws on the book of Nehemiah to show how each of us can begin again when we look to God for help. Whether we have suffered broken relationships, integrity missteps, devastating loss, or any other setback, it is never too late to rebuild our lives!

Nehemiah understood this truth when he called on the Lord for insight during his people’s hard times. He was an ordinary man who applied principles from God that enabled him to rebuild a broken city wall and, in the process, rebuild a lot of broken hopes. Nehemiah left behind some secrets of his success–a sort of hidden “code”–which can become a fountain of hope and strength to us. Nehemiah’s message across the centuries is plain and powerful: it is never too late for a new beginning!

The Nehemiah Code Study Guide includes video teaching notes, discussion questions, Bible exploration, and weekly personal study and reflection materials.

Sessions include:

1. Get Started Right
2. Build a Team Spirit
3. Let Go Without Letting Up
4. Persevere Through Difficulties
