Being Heard by God and Hearing Him: Hannah, Sacrifice and Samuel (1 Samuel 1-7)

About this episode

Kerry Muhlestein and Camille Fronk Olson discuss the stories of Hannah and Samuel, exploring themes of obedience and prophetic succession.

This week on Patreon we will help you see where things happened and also teach you in detail about the story of the lost ark and regaining with, with videos, pictures, maps and meaningful lessons. In this special episode Kerry helps us learn more from the powerful story of Ruth. He and Camille Fronk Olson then teach about the power of the story of Hannah, and Kerry helps us see the story of Samuel’s call in a way that helps us understand modern prophets and prophetic succession better. He also talks about lessons we can learn from Samuel’s call that can help us learn to Hear Him and learn to be more obedient and attuned to the Spirit. We are grateful for our executive producers, P.
