Send us Fan MailWhat do you do when you know something is wrong, but changing it could upset people? In Nehemiah 13, Nehemiah returns to Jerusalem and discovers that something has been allowed to happen that goes against God's instructions. His response is decisive: he removes what should not be there and restores the space to its intended purpose. But this isn't only a lesson about Nehemiah. It raises a difficult question for all of us: Is there something under your authority that needs to change? At work, in leadership, in business, in parenting or in our everyday relationships, we can sometimes mistake being nice for being loving. But there are moments when love requires courage, firmness and decisive action. In this episode of Jola Speaks, we explore what Nehemiah teaches us about Christian leadership, authority, correction, courage and doing what is right even when it ruffles feathers. If God has entrusted something to your care, what might He be asking you to put back in order? Watch and listen to “When Doing the Right Thing Is Hard” and grow with God.#jolaspeaks @jolaspeaks #christianpodcast #dailydevotion #spiritualgrowth
