The Nehemiah Code: It's Never Too Late for a New Beginning (The Code Series)

Who isn't in need of a new beginning? Bestselling author O. S. Hawkins knows that whether it be broken relationships, integrity missteps, or loss, most of us will spend some or much of the next year trying to restore something. The good news is . . . it’s never too late for a new beginning.

Hawkins, with more than 550,000 books sold, now turns his eye to another biblical hero in The Nehemiah Code. Nehemiah was a civil servant from 2,500 years ago who applied principles found in the Bible for insight during hard times, help to start again, and encouragement to rebuild a life.

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. Topics include: 

• Taking personal responsibility
• Moving out of your comfort zone
• Rebuilding team spirit
• Holding those around you accountable
• Doing what is right
• Finishing strong

All author royalties go toward Mission:Dignity, an organization that supports retired pastors and their spouses living near the poverty level.
