03: Trouble & Shame (2)
Merlin Miller continues to focus on Nehemiah 1:1-3, this time focusing on areas of trouble & shame that we have today in our personal lives, our families and our churches due to broken down walls & burned gates.

02: Trouble & Shame
Merlin Miller gives the second message from the Nehemiah series, from Nehemiah 1:1-3. Nehemiah inquires about the status of those left behind in Judah, particularly the city of Jerusalem.
