Nehemiah: Renewal Leads to Repentance || Ps. Courtney Lush

In Sunday’s message, Ps. Courtney reminded us that renewal always leads to repentance. As the people of Israel gathered, they responded to the Word and the work of God with heartfelt confession. To repent is to see ourselves rightly—acknowledging our sin—and to see God rightly—as merciful, faithful, and just. True renewal doesn’t end with inspiration; it leads us back to the heart of God. And the good news? God never leaves us in our sin. He meets us with grace, restores us with truth, and calls us forward in holiness. 📖 “They stood in their places and confessed their sins and the sins of their ancestors.” — Nehemiah 9:2 Let us be a people marked by humility, honesty, and hope—repenting daily and returning to the One who makes all things new.
