In this powerful opening chapter of 1 Samuel, we witness what it looks like when faith meets heartbreak. Hannah is a woman marked by sorrow—childless, ridiculed, and overlooked. Yet she doesn’t run from God—she runs to Him. With bitter tears and a trembling soul, she lays it all before the Lord. And what does God do?

He hears. He answers. He moves.

This episode unpacks how God sovereignly answers the petitions of those whose hearts are broken and contrite before Him (Psalm 51:17). We’ll walk verse by verse through Hannah’s pain, her desperate prayer, and the surprising way God begins a redemptive plan through her surrendered heart.

✨ What You’ll Learn:

• Why Hannah’s pain was not pointless
• How God works through seasons of silence
• What it means to have a contrite and broken spirit before God
• Why your personal suffering may become someone else’s breakthrough
• How 1 Samuel 1 points forward to the Gospel
