Can you eat upside down? When your tummy rumbles, does that mean you’re hungry? And what do you do when the food runs out? Nehemiah had it all to do in Jerusalem as he led the rebuilding of Jerusalem’s walls and the gates (including the Dung Gate). And he shows us how we look after in the church for God’s glory.
