Description
A challenge to the church from Ezra and Nehemiah
In this book, Stuart Bell issues a challenge to us not to remain static after all that has been achieved, but to go deeper into God’s plan and purpose for His people. This is a timely, stirring and inspiring book that deserves to be widely read. In this book, Stuart Bell connects people, historic events and his personal experiences to form an amazing tapestry in which Scripture and God’s plan remain central. As you read, I believe you will be connected with God’s power and plan for His Church and you will more clearly see your role in helping to build a ‘strong and effective church taking a central position in society’. I dream, with Stuart, of such a powerful Church and believe that this book will contribute to it becoming a growing reality. Through his friendly style and unique humour Stuart succeeds in challenging us all to stay in step with God’s restoration process. However, it goes deeper than that. From his rich insight I have personally gained practical gems of truth that have equipped me further and left a fresh hope in my heart that God will complete the work He started! I’m sure it will do the same for you and much more! – from the foreword by Francois van Niekerk, Senior Pastor of Hatfield Christian Church, Pretoria, South Africa.
