Luke's gospel is a musical. With 4 songs, it really sets the tone for the whole Advent story. We start with Zachariah's song. This sermon really warms us up for a great Christmas season. It includes possibly the best segment of "Pastor Jaymes is a Total Nerd" ever at The Table. For more information follow us on Instagram @thetablefmc or find us on Facebook. And join us in our new building at 360 Grand Ave. in Oroville! Text Pastor Jaymes questions or comments on the message at (530) 871-9985. Thank you for Listening!
Christmas carols mark the Advent season and history records the first carol ever sung; found in the Gospel of Luke, the carol is called Zachariah's song. This song was sung to proclaim the faithfulness of God through the ages and His commitment to fulfill every one of His promises. We are still singing this powerful song today as we celebrate this beautiful season of God's provision.

In the second instalment of our Love Actually: Songs of Christmas series, James Price shares from Luke 1 and Zachariah's Song of Praise concerning the birth of John the Baptist!
Zachariah's Song alludes to over 35 different Old Testament scriptures. With the use of phrases like “God of Israel,” “to his people,” “from our enemies,” “his servant David,” and “our father Abraham” the reader of this song should recognize how Zachariah is looking back. But he is not just looking back. He is looking back to look forward. He is using the actions of God recorded in the Old Testament as a backdrop for the even greater things God will do through Jesus Christ. With these allusions we can see how God makes His-Story, how the story of God's dealings with Israel becomes the story of God redeeming the entire world.
