Zechariah 7: Bethel to Celebrate the Rebuilt Temple or Fast in Spirit? - a podcast by KFUO Radio

Rev. Brian Davies, pastor of Lord of Glory Lutheran Church in Grayslake, Illinois, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Zechariah 7.

Almost two years after the visions, Zechariah addresses a reasonable and serious question in chapter 7: is it time to stop mourning the Exile and to start celebrating the Temple? As its reconstruction neared completion, God’s people were at a turning point.God answers a question with a question: While the reasons for fasting and mourning the Exile were good, what did God actually command? Have we lost sight of our good intentions and begun to lie to ourselves like Walter White (Breaking Bad spoiler)? God’s people are not doomed to repeat history; the sinful nature never learns or gets better, but the Spirit of Christ is stronger than our sinful nature.
