Evening Sermon - 21st June 2026 - Zechariah's Call to Wake Up and See Christ

Episode description

This evening's sermon is delivered by Rev. George Speers.

In this second sermon on Zechariah, the Reverend George Speers looks at why the book was written and what it teaches about God. He shows how Zechariah first stirred a lethargic post-exilic community to finish rebuilding the temple, and how it still calls every generation to wholehearted service rather than excuse-making. Rev Speers then traces three great theological themes running through the prophecy - the presence of God with His people, the promised Messiah, and the costly redemption He would achieve through suffering - showing how vividly Zechariah anticipates the person and work of Jesus Christ.
