Do you have something in your life that needs to be
rebuilt—a relationship, a career, a community? Do you know anyone who needs to
rebuild a marriage, a vision, or a goal? If so, this book is for you, this book
is for them.
The Nehemiah Code by
O.S. Hawkins—divided into six parts and 24 chapters—speaks about principles of rebuilding.
It is never too late to rebuild. Nehemiah was a master rebuilder: he rebuilt
the wall of Jerusalem, and Hawkins shows readers how. By extrapolating each
verse of the first six chapters of Nehemiah, Hawkins shows what is necessary
for rebuilding: assessing the damage, standing up, rallying a team, leading by
example, pushing forward through opposition, dealing with conflict, and more.
What I appreciate most about this book is that each
verse from the first six chapters of Nehemiah is used to create Hawkins
message. This book reads like a Bible study. Sometimes when I’m reading books
teaching Biblical principles I feel guilty—like I should be spending my time
reading the Bible instead. But not with this book. It is an enriching Bible
study.
The book itself is pretty. It would make a nice
gift. It’s small and has an embossed, padded cover. The idea of the book is
also intriguing—the idea that the Book of Nehemiah has a code to be cracked.
And Hawkins cracks it. His illustrations and applications are simple and short,
but profound and inspiring. He left me with a few one-liners to tuck into my
pocket and use when I need a boost upward.
I recommend this book to others.
