Epikos Church Sermons

In this week's sermon, Pastor Tommy Hutchison discusses the biblical story of Zechariah and Elizabeth, an elderly, childless priest and his wife who are promised a son by the angel Gabriel. The narrative highlights themes of faith, divine promise, and joy during the Advent season. Initially, Zechariah doubts the angel's proclamation and is struck mute, but when his son John is born, he demonstrates trust in God by naming the child as instructed rather than following traditional naming customs. The sermon emphasizes that joy is found in trusting God's promises and encourages listeners to rediscover the wonder of the Christmas story, whether experiencing it for the first time or as a long-time believer.
