Great Characters of the Bible: Hannah

About this episode

John Bradshaw explores the faith and actions of Hannah in the context of her prayer and its national significance.

In a poignant prayer, Hannah—barren, ridiculed, and anguished—poured out her heart to God, begging for a son. When he arrived, she knew he was a gift from God, and so … she gave him right back. Join John Bradshaw as he examines the depth of Hannah’s faith and the impact her actions had on a nation in the ongoing “Great Characters of the Bible” series.
