Morning Sermon - 5th July 2026 - A Call to Return: Lessons from Zechariah's History

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

In this sermon on Zechariah 1:1-6, the Reverend George Speers begins a new series on the book of Zechariah, framed around the theme of longing for God in an age of discouragement. He explores four themes from the opening verses: the warning of history, the summons of the Lord, the power of God's Word, and the voice of repentance, urging listeners to learn from Israel's failure to heed the prophets and to respond afresh to God's call to 'return to me... and I will return to you'.
