Before kings ruled, before prophets thundered, before battles were fought—there was a woman… in silence.
Her name was Hannah.
Barren. Broken. Mocked. Forgotten—at least in the eyes of others.
Year after year, she came to worship. Year after year, her arms were still empty.
But one day, with trembling lips and a heart full of unspoken pain, she prayed.
No sermon. No spotlight. Just a weeping woman in the house of the Lord.
And heaven heard.
That cry would birth a prophet. That pain would shape a nation.
In a world dominated by pride, corruption, and spiritual decline, God began His revival not in a palace, but in the tears of a faithful woman.
And when her prayer turned to praise, she sang of a God who lifts the lowly, shatters the proud, and changes the course of history.
Be blessed, encouraged, exhorted and edified as Jonathan Simpson takes us through these first two chapters of 1 Samuel.
