Contributed by Jonathan Campbell on Feb 9, 2009

Samuel - Speaking The Words Of God Series

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Jul 18, 2009

A short talk given at an early morning communion service. Samuel was young, but his first task after coming to know the Lord was to speak hard words from God to Eli (his mentor!) Will we also speak the truth, in love, to others?
