The Way Forward through Sacred Assembly Contemporary

In our text, Nehemiah moves from reconstructing the wall into reconstructing the spiritual life of the people of God. This happens as they get involved in a series of large group worship experiences called Solemn or Sacred Assemblies (Neh. 8:18). As a church, we’re doing the same thing. We’re going to have a sacred assembly and this text will help us understand what that’s all about. Because when God wants to reconstruct a life, and a community, there is one thing we must do to join Him in that work and it is tied to sacred assembly.
