1 Samuel 3:15 - 4:1a - Samuel Speaks for the Lord
In this sermon we see how after the Lord has spoken to Samuel that Samuel may have been afraid to pass that message on. But we think about how Eli was wise in helping Samuel to speak - but not so wise in how he responded to the message Samuel brought.
We also think about how we are called to speak - and to share the good news of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

1 Samuel 2: 26-37 - Judgment on Eli and his family
In this passage in 1 Samuel, we see judgment being brought upon Eli because of his failure to discipline his sons and put the Lord first.
We ask the question as to whether we are putting the Lord first - and how the Lord's judgement can be merciful.We also think about how even though it is 1 Samuel, there are already whispers of Jesus here!

1 Samuel 2: 12-26 - The Dreadful, the Delightful and the Difficult.
In this sermon on 1 Samuel 2: 12-26 we see the focus begin to shift onto the person of Samuel. Samuel is growing up in the Tabernacle and is faithfully serving the Lord.We see:The Dreadful - The awful sin of Eli's sons.
The Delightful - God's grace and favour to Hannah.
The Difficult - That the Lord has decided to bring judgement on Eli's sons before Eli even rebukes them because their hearts are hard.

1 Samuel 2: 1-11 - Hannah's Prayer of Praise!
