Hannah Wants a Child

This summer I culminated the last few years of research into a seminar for Cornerstone West LA that offers a framework for how to tackle stories in Biblical narrative, an area of Bible reading that I’ve often shied away from. I’m proud of the work it took to pull that hour and a half together, as well as the opportunity to teach the topic. I hope it’s the first of many messages I get to give about God’s good work in the lives of women.

But if an hour and a half listen is a bit too long, I also used my research from the seminar to do my own study on the character of Hannah in 1 Samuel. Check out Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3 over at Cornerstone’s website. If you are considering what you want to study in the new year, I encourage you to start with Hannah and allow her to frame a read of the entire book of 1 and 2 Samuel.
