Mary’s Song

December 8, 2024

Series: A Hope Foretold

Topic: Advent, Faith, Mary

Book: Luke

In this week’s sermon, Pastor Mark Deering explores the biblical narrative of Mary’s song from Luke Chapter 1, focusing on the themes of God’s faithfulness and humility. Using Mary’s response to the angel Gabriel and her subsequent visit to Elizabeth, Pastor Mark highlights how a young teenage girl demonstrated profound spiritual insight by magnifying God despite her extraordinary circumstances. Pastor Mark emphasizes that God’s faithfulness is not a chapter in our personal stories, but rather the foundational narrative to which our lives contribute. He encourages listeners to saturate themselves in biblical stories, recognize God’s faithfulness in both prosperous and challenging times, and approach life with humility and a deep understanding of God’s ongoing work.
