Hannah's Barrenness
Chase Replogle
Pastor
1 Samuel introduces us to a new character, Hannah. She is barren. Israel is barren. With no son and no king, disappointment and discouragement rule the land.
Hannah finds little help from those around her. Culture, family, religion—all offer advice. Some of it sounds good, most leaves her feeling crushed. But they are all distractions from what God is actually doing. Hannah finds a way through. A way to God. There she finds herself included in God’s plan of salvation.
