Nehemiah 2:19-20; 4:1-16
Dealing With The Bullies

It's pretty much a given that we will face bullies along the way of building lives of faith.  Bullies are those who consistently and deliberately misuse their power in relationships.  Whatever this looks like, it can be demoralizing for the faith.   While Nehemiah and the people of God were rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem, some powerful bullies taunted and threatened enough to demoralize the workers.  How would Nehemiah respond?  And how do we respond to the bullies in our lives today?
