In pursuit of great things, many pastors have forgotten the simple things of the gospel of Christ. The author of this article discusses Zechariah 4:10 in reminding the reader that God uses simple and small things to make his glory known.

Working from Zechariah 4:6-10, this article shows how the Israelites, upon returning to Jerusalem after exile, faced an impossible task of rebuilding the city and the temple. God strengthened the Israelites by showing that He will be the one accomplishing the task through Zerubbabel. Similarly, the church today can trust that the work of mankind's restoration will be accomplished by Christ.
