I would think this book is great for someone exploring their feelings and beliefs about God, as well as someone wanting to deepen their Love for our creator. Ingram includes many leadership insights and thoughts about discouragement and the importance of pressing ahead when discouraged. This book is a great resource for helping you to frankly consider what your current view of God is, and it gives references and suggestions of what God wants us to understand about him. Such a situation may cause fear but radical faith like Nehemiah's requires one to act in spite of the fear, at the risk of comfort and cost. I especially liked what he had to say about faith and what it may take to 'step out in faith' once the Lord speaks to you or gives you an idea of what He wants you to do.
The main six points of the first 4 chapters of Nehemiah that teach one how to have a heart that is completely the Lord's are.: The theme verse of the book is 2 Chron 16:9a: 'For the eyes of the Lord look to and fro throughout the earth that He may strongly support those whose heart is completely His.' I don't think he 'spiritualizes' or overreaches to make his points and I found the book very practical. Lessons taken from the book of Nehemiah are well developed and thought-out.
This is a book about leadership and personal alignment to the character of God This book is about 'getting it together' to make a significant difference where God directs.
