A Birth for the Barren

Morning Service
Dec 7, 2025

The story of Zechariah shows how the gospel meets us in real-life brokenness, not polished perfection. After 400 years of silence toward Israel—and in the midst of Zechariah and Elizabeth’s decades of disappointment—God speaks an unexpected word of grace: a promised child who will prepare the way for the Messiah. Zechariah’s unbelief reveals how even believers struggle to trust God’s promises. Yet God responds with mercy, showing once again that his gospel is a free gift—not earned, but given. It is good news for weary, waiting people who desperately need his undeserved grace.
