Zechariah's Christmas

Series: Coping with Christmas

Stuart Briscoe

Do you truly believe in Him or just look like you do? As a priest, Zechariah was very good at going through the religious motions—performing the right ritual at the right time. So when an angel came and told him that his prayers were being answered and he and his elderly wife would have a son, his response was one of questioning disbelief. When given an incredible answer to prayer, Zechariah had to decide if he really believed what he claimed to believe. 

In this message, Stuart Briscoe helps us understand what motivated Zechariah’s actions and encourages us to turn the struggle to believe into a song of praise.

Scripture: Luke 1:5 - 1:25
