In this episode of Also Featured in the Cast, I turn our attention to Hannah, the mother of Samuel. In the “movie” of 1 Samuel, Samuel is clearly the star, but Hannah—often overlooked—shapes the story in ways that change history. We’ll explore her passionate prayer, her faithfulness to keep her covenant with God, and her role in raising and dedicating Samuel for the Lord’s service. Along the way, I’ll reflect on how God uses “supporting characters” like Hannah—and like you and me—to bring about His plans. Even when we feel unseen, our influence may be far greater than we imagine.
