There is an overwhelming bunch of good news in this song. God has come to visit us; redeem us; and be the power of salvation for us. On and on the song goes like that exalting the grace and mercy of God toward his people. There is here, however, more than anything else an image of a new dad here - a dad who sings a lullaby to his children to hold them with his words. It is God telling you to just be held as you go through scares in life. Listen in.
There are many, many miracles here in Luke 1. There is, however, one that may be most relevant of all to us: the silencing of Zechariah. This is a sermon that meditates on the meaning of that miracle. It seeks to let hope rise in the hearer in the unbreakable promises of God. Listen in.

These are the answers Luke gives us!
