Characters of the Bible, and their stories, are often sought out for guidance and wisdom in different areas of life. However, other Biblical characters who provide guidance are frequently overlooked. In this Wesley Academy course, Wesley seminary has spotlighted Nehemiah and his testament to the holy calling of leadership. The story of Nehemiah’s amazing work in rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem is well known. Less well known, though, are the unique lessons he personifies for being a leader today. In this course, learners will explore a number of these leadership themes, including the role of prayer, the discernment of vision, the development of a team, and the work to persevere through inevitable challenges. By the end of this six-week course, the learner – and aspiring leader – will clearly see the relevance of Nehemiah for faithful leadership in the contemporary church.
