In this week's sermon, Pastor Mark Deering recaps the three main parts of Luke 1: Zechariah's initial disbelief when told by an angel that his elderly wife Elizabeth would bear a son, Mary's faithful response to her own angelic visitation, and finally the birth of John the Baptist where Zechariah regains his speech and offers a prophecy of praise. Pastor Mark emphasizes how Zechariah's story shows a progression from doubt to complete surrender and praise, highlighting how he accepted that his son John would prepare the way for Jesus rather than follow in his priestly legacy.
