Fight For It What in Your Life is Worth Fighting For?

As you look around our world today on the macro-level, things are a mess. Our nation's healthcare system has been stretched to its limit. Our education system had to reinvent itself. The political landscape is deeply fractured. The country is divided right down the middle on which way we should head. On the micro-level, we have isolated from our neighbors. Our trust in leaders seems to be at an all-time low. We are tired, frazzled, at our limits. We wonder if things will ever return to normal.

Yet all these facts and feelings do not negate the reality that we have great potential as a people. Our story is not too dissimilar to what happened in the divided nations of Israel and Judah beginning in 605 B.C. Many were asking, "Where did we go wrong?" Others asked, "Is there a way forward?" In this context-where the temple of the Lord, the walls of the city of Jerusalem, the hearts of the residents of the land, were lying in ruin-this is where God was up to something.

In Fight For It, Dr. Roger Patterson examines the rebuild story of the city of Jerusalem--her walls and the temple. In this study of Ezra and Nehemiah, Dr. Patterson helps us see the four fights of our own lives -- ourselves, our homes, our churches, and our cities--discovering the things in our lives that are worth fighting for!
