I’m getting ramped up for our Home Gathering (core group meeting) tonight at 7:30pm. We are in the second part of Nehemiah 8 and will be talking about the Festival of Booths and discussing how passionate the people were for God’s word.

We will also talk about how its pretty significant that in this passage of text the people had just stood through a six hour time of teaching the day before and now, the very next day the heads of the families are coming together to learn even more about God’s word. I don’t know about you, but that speaks volumes to me about their dedication to learning about, and growing in God.
