"No good deed goes unpunished," so the saying goes. Now not all sayings are true, but this sardonic expression has survived for a reason. There is a reality that good deeds often experience resistance. For Nehemiah, this is what happens. Maybe this is what is happening to you, too - you're trying to do a good work, but you keep experiencing resistance. Perhaps this resistance is criticism from friends or ridicule from a group, or maybe it's even flat-out hostility. Sunday, we'll talk about how to fight through the resistance and continue the good work.

The Grove Church is a neighborhood church located in Dallas, TX. We love the imagery of coming together as a community and being the group of 'fruit-bearing trees' that Jeremiah writes about in the Old Testament (see Jeremiah 17:7-8). Our vision for The Grove is to become a church that lives out its faith in tangible ways, intentionally creating environments that gather people together, grow them closer to God, and give back to our neighbors. This podcast is our audio versions of live sermons preached every Sunday online and in-person.
