    In the story of "Ichabod: Where is the Glory?" we explore God's presence, human frailty, and His enduring faithfulness. It's a journey from despair to restoration, revealing God's unchanging love.

    Ichabod: Where is the Glory? Introduction: In our study of the book of Samuel, we come across a tragic event that signifies the departure of the glory of God from His people. The story of the Ark of the Covenant and its capture by the Philistines reveals the consequences of sin and disobedience. ...read more

    “Speak, Lord, We are Listening” 1 Samuel 3:1-4a The passage begins in darkness, not just the kind of darkness we experience at night, although it is nighttime.

    If you suspect the voice you hear is divine, then tell God you are listening and then shut up and listen.

    Second Sunday in Course 2024 Samuel was a prophet, but he was not aware of that until he was literally shaken from sleep by God. Old Eli wasn’t a prophet, but after three divine attempts to get his and Samuel’s attention, he finally either got the message or was so irritated that instead of ...read more

    In the reading today there many simple folks who simply do what they can and the results are not so simple or common.

    “Simple Man” 1 Samuel 3:1-10, (11-20) 1. Samuel was just that a simple man ? He was a worker in the Temple as an apprentice to Eli, the high priest. ?

    Bridge Builders (January 14, 2018 Second Sunday After Epiphany)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Nov 4, 2021
     | 1,750 views

    What is a priest? One way to think about what a priest does is to compare them to being a bridge builder. Why that analogy? A bridge connects pieces of land that are geographically separated, much like a priest helps people connect with God.

    BRIDGE BUILDERS (January 14, 2018 Second Sunday after Epiphany) Text: I Samuel 3:1-10 1 Samuel 3:1-10  Now the boy Samuel was ministering to the LORD under Eli. The word of the LORD was rare in those days; visions were not widespread.  (2)  At that time Eli, whose eyesight had ...read more

    The arrangement of the Tabernacle can only be clearly understood through the revelation of God's plan of salvation revealed in Jesus Christ. It is an amazing thing to see and humbling to know we don't deserve it and yet we can have it by grace through faith in Jesus! Hallelujah!!!

    Reducing The Ark Of God To A Good Luck Charm

    In the early part of the time when Samuel was a Judge of Israel the people were still far from God. In a brazen act of foolishness some men charged into the Holy of Holies and and ran off with the Ark hoping it could help them defeat the enemy. It did not.

    Where Did He Go? Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Job 19:25-27 “I know that my Redeemer lives, and that in the end He will stand on the earth.

    In this sermon I want us to concentrate on one thing from these two scriptures in our text.

    Look at… (1) John 10:27, My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. (2) I Samuel 3:9, 1 Samuel 3:9 Eli said unto Samuel, Go, lie down: and it shall be, if he call thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, LORD; for thy servant heareth.

    God's voice is often heard in stillness. He commanded, "Be still, and know that I am God" (Psalm 46:10 NIV).

    "Speak Lord for your servant is listening" (1 Samuel 3:9) "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me" (John 10:27 KJV) The Prophet Habakkuk knew the sound of God's voice. Elijah described it as a still, small voice heard as random thoughts, impressions, ...read more

    Do We Need To Wake Up Our Spiritual Life?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 26, 2023
     | 1,118 views

    Have we fallen asleep spiritually? Is God calling us to wake up? If so, what are we to do? Can we see any similarities with our Scripture and Christians today?

    Our passage of Scripture finds Samuel and Eli to be a little older, but Samuel is still referred to as a boy. Samuel hears his name called while he is sleeping in the temple just before dawn. He quickly approaches Eli, who tells him to return to bed. Samuel is informed by Eli that it is the Lord ...read more
