Monty Simao 2014Sermon Notes

Date: 03/23/2025

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor

Series: Zechariah

Key Text: Zechariah 4:6-10

Description:

Have you ever questioned whether your quiet acts of faithfulness really make a difference?

…Maybe it’s setting up chairs, praying for someone year after year, or simply striving to remain steady in the daily grind

— it can all feel so small.

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Zechariah where you see if you’re feeling this way, you’re not alone. In our passage, God speaks directly to this discouragement.

He reminds His people — He reminds us — that His purposes are not fulfilled by human strength, but by His Spirit.

In His hands, mountains are leveled, temples are completed, and no act of faith — however small — is ever wasted.

Monty Simao 2014Sermon Notes

Date: 02/02/2025

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor

Series: Zechariah

Key Text: Zechariah 2:1-5

Description:

Have you ever felt like you were in ruins?

— needing to rebuild… but not even knowing how to piece life back together?

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Zechariah in which we learn that that was the reality of his day. For the nation of Judah — the remnant of Israel — had returned from exile to Jerusalem, only to find their once-great city in ruins.

How could it be restored??

They were discourage, vulnerable, and uncertain about the future.

But in Zechariah 2, God gives them —God gives us— a vision that defies human expectation:

A CITY WITHOUT WALLS.

…a place of expansion, security, and glory — secured not by walls, BUT BY GOD HIMSELF, who is both its protector and dwelling place.
