    Contributed by Chip Monck on Nov 8, 2005
    based on 5 ratings
     | 3,563 views

    Third in a series in the book of Nehemiah. This message explores the "why" (motivation) of vision, versus the "how" (process of fulfilling) the vision. Emphasizes that the "how" is for God to handle, and the "why" will keep us focused on the vision.

There is a great similarity between success at Jeopardy, and success in seeing the current vision for your life come into focus. To ...read more
