Prisoners of Hope 2: Avoiding Mistaken Focus - Zechariah 2

I enjoy trains, train tracks, train stations, riding on trains. Things with trains are pretty straightforward and clear if there's just two tracks, one line. But the nearer to the city center, the more switches there are, so that you can have a dozen tracks side by side and move from one to the other. Some large trains can be 100 cars, but it just takes a little switch that moves 3 centimeters to redirect that train completely, so that instead of going to Ajax, it ends up in Kitchener or North Bay. And you want to get it right. We are in this series out of the book of Zechariah, "Prisoners of Hope". What will rob us of hope is when we find ourselves in a different destination than we wanted to be at the beginning. There are things that can throw us off track, and they're not even big things. In this chapter, there are three things that can easily throw us off track. And so I want to read through Zechariah 2 and talk about how to make sure that we stay on track.Extra reading: Philippians 4:4-7Preacher: Bill Dyck
