Message: “Promise in the Silence” from Paul Karsten

The story of Christmas begins not with angels and shepherds, but with silence. For 400 years after Malachi, there was no prophetic word. But God's promise still stood. The birth of John the Baptist breaks the silence and prepares the way for Jesus. This week we’ll see that God's delays are not His denials—and His promises always arrive right on time.

Scripture References: Isaiah 9:2, Isaiah 9:6, Malachi 4:5-6, Luke 1:5-15, Luke 1:57-60
