Ezra is face-down on the ground, shattered by the sin of God's people — and before he says a word to anyone, hearts begin to break around him. What made this man's grief so contagious? His praying, his passion, and his piety were all backed by one thing: he was the same man in private as he was in public. Then an obscure figure named Shechaniah rises with a word of hope and courage that lifts Ezra off the dust and launches an entire national reformation.
