Book excerpt: The business world has discovered one of the greatest methodologies in the Bible, the Nehemiah process, and has transformed it in such a way that it's become an important industrial standard known as Prince2 (Project In Controlled Environment II). Within the church community the Nehemiah process has not been taken advantage of and this book is to bring about the awareness of Nehemiah's project management process and how it can be used to manage God's business more efficiently. Projects form part of the bigger picture in God's Kingdom, each Project stems from fulfilling God's vision for his kingdom and should be taken as such. This book presents the main stages involved in managing projects and follows how Nehemiah has used this process and how we can learn from this to manage the next project effectively.

With room for three years' worth of responses, The Daily Bible Project offers a unique opportunity to track your spiritual growth and progress year over year.
