In the book of Nehemiah, we find a Jewish leader, living in Exile and heart-broken by the ruined state of Jerusalem’s walls. When the opportunity arose, he made a "bold ask," requesting specific resources: timber from the king’s forest and safe passage. These items were necessary to rebuild what had been broken (Nehemiah 2:1-8). Just as Nehemiah identified a physical need to protect a spiritual community, we are stepping out in faith to ensure our church remains a welcoming gathering place for generations to come and worship. As we introduce this campaign to the whole congregation, we will shift our focus from "fundraising" to radical generosity and what that means for people of faith.
