Sweetpeach Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Tomorrow's SS class is about Nehemiah and rebuilding the walls of Jeruslem. The kids in my class LOVE Adventures in Odyssey so I'm trying to find an A in O story about Nehemiah and his construction work. I tried to do a search on the Whit site, but no luck. Can anyone help me with this? Thank you, Tricia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pongo Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 (edited) Hummm, is it this one: Changing Times Edited November 8, 2008 by Pongo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RhondaM. Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Well, I have not read this so I don't know if this is exactly what you are looking for. It is about Nehemiah. Victory on the Walls Thirteen-year-old Bani, though born in Jerusalem, has lived from infancy with his uncle in beautiful Susa, the city of the Persian King Artaxerxes. Now, his Uncle Nehemiah wants to leave his position of high honor as Cupbearer to the King to return to Jerusalem, a city in ruins and beset by every kind of trouble! Nehemiah's request of the king, permission to return to help his own people, could so easily--in an empire riddled with political intrigue--be misconstrued as treasonous scheming. Bani himself is given an unexpected part to play, the outcome of which is to forever change his life. Seen through the eyes of Bani, this novel dramatizes a turning-point of history, in 445 BC, when--through confrontation and daring risks--Judaism was re-established in the Promised Land, and purified for her unfolding mission. You can get this at Bethlehem Books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dani n Monies Mom Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I 2nd Victory on the Walls. It's a very good book, although it's not Adventures in Odyssey. Ava Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweetpeach Posted November 8, 2008 Author Share Posted November 8, 2008 Hummm, is it this one:Changing Times Close, so very close . . . but this is about Joshua and I need the story about Nehemiah. The book selection is exactly what I'd need, but I only have 25 minutes to make or break the story! Thank you and who knows, maybe someone else will chime in!

Midwest Momma Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Well, there is a part of "Facing the Giants" where the coach tells the story of Nehemiah and relates it to football (all this according to my 9yods & 11yods; I have a vague memory:001_unsure:).

Midwest Momma Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Google helped me find these two nifty sites. It looks like there are no AIO that are about Nehemiah. http://www.aiowiki.com/wiki/Category:Episodes_by_Scripture_Reference http://www.whitsend.org/vault/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping your selection above is what I need. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midwest Momma Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 If you check out the first link, it has stories listed by Scripture reference. There are no stories from Nehemiah. But this can be a handy tool for future reference :). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
