Much of what you experience each day would be impossible without the people who work behind the scenes to make something great. The mission of God is often built on the foundation of the work of “willing unknowns.” For example, Nehemiah couldn’t have rebuilt Jerusalem’s wall and resettled the city without countless unknown contributors taking the risk to help him. Find the significance in being unknown with Pastor Chuck Swindoll as he teaches through Nehemiah 7. Your name may never be famous among people, but God will forever recognize and honor the value of your role.

Everyone begins each day with an opportunity. We all have the same twenty-four hours to spend. Too many, however, watch this time slip away because of poor prioritization. Careful thought always precedes good action. The Israelite leaders recognized this reality, and in Nehemiah 10, they signed a document promising to lead lives committed to God. Since God was their priority, these faithful people would begin each day looking to Him. Put first things first with Pastor Chuck Swindoll as he demonstrates the importance of placing God above every other demand.

Perhaps you need a fresh look at what Jesus made possible for you. Grace leads us to salvation, and then it directs us toward Spirit-empowered living! Embracing grace was difficult for many of the apostle Paul’s peers. It was natural for them to return to human-based rules, which they were so accustomed to. Preaching on Paul’s instructions in Galatians, Pastor Chuck Swindoll illustrates the right road between oppressive legalism and flippant freedom. Live by the power of God’s grace!
