Battle and Build | ryan peterson

06-15-25Comfort is killing our courage. The book of Nehemiah describes a massive transition that he went through from the comfort of the palace into the thick of the challenges of rebuilding. Nehemiah left the complacent yet lush culture of being an assistant to the King of Persia and went to a desolate city in ruins, all because he wept over what God put in his heart. The church finds itself in a similar season of shedding security to rise up and build our city. Renewal of our city comes out of the burden of revival in our hearts. We must leave the comforts that have led us to be dormant and stoke the fire of God again to hear His agenda for our city. We are called to use both of our hands—battling with one hand, building with the other. Let’s gather together and discover how we can lay bricks and pick up our swords for the good of our city.You can find this weeks sermon notes and groups guide here:https://gracechurchsp.org/resources/sermon-guidesTo support this ministry and help us continue to reach people all around the world click here: http://www.gracechurchsp.org/giveFill the city with Jesus. This is the vision not just for our church, but for our people. The city is not just a physical location, but a collection of our family members, friends, co-workers, and acquaintances.
