    “Now the Lord came and stood and called as at other times, ‘Samuel! Samuel!’ And Samuel answered, ‘speak, for your servant hears”. (1 Samuel 3:10)

    The world we live in today is not the world our grandparents lived in and it certainly will not be the world our grandchildren will live in. They will live in a completely different world and age. The world has seen many different ages. It has seen the stone age, the bronze age, the iron age, the ...read more

    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. So Samuel went and lay down in his place. Notice ...read more

    When God Calls Your Name: Samuel Series

    Contributed by Scott Bayles on Sep 11, 2021
     | 6,167 views

    How would you respond if God called your name not once, but twice? In the Bible, God calls plenty of people often by name, but I’ve only found seven times where God calls out someone’s name twice in a row. In each instance, what follows is a life-changing encounter with the God of creation.

    When God Calls Your Name… Twice: Samuel Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 8/14/2016 Hearing your name called can evoke different responses depending on the circumstances. For instance, there’s a sense of fear and anxiety when you’re a student and you hear your name called over ...read more

    There are so many different voices we listen to when we need help. There is the voice of God - the one we should listen to above all.

    OVERCOME BY LISTENING TO GOD 1 Samuel 3:1-16 Introduction There are so many different voices we listen to when we need help. There is that inner voice, the one we talk to when we are alone.

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

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Nov 4, 2021
     | 1,899 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

    Hearing And Listening

    There's a difference between hearing and listening

    A man became convinced he was losing his hearing. He went to a specialist, who gave him a thorough checkup. The doctor brought out a ticking clock, and asked, “Can you hear this ticking?” The man replied, “Of course.” The specialist walked to the door and held up the clock again. “Now can you ...read more

    32. Lord Abner: When Power Shifts And Hearts Are Revealed Series

    Contributed by Dr. Bradford Reaves on Nov 18, 2025
     | 193 views

    A man named Abner, who secretly controlled a weak king, manipulated the kingdom for his own power, and almost reshaped the nation from the shadows. This is one of the most politically charged, tension-filled chapters in David’s rise to the throne.

    Lord Abner: When Power Shifts and Hearts Are Revealed November 19, 2025 Dr. Bradford Reaves Crossway Christian Fellowship 2 Samuel 3:1-12 When you look back through history, there are always certain figures who never wear a crown, never win an election, and never sit on a throne — yet somehow, ...read more

    How often does God speak, and we walk by distracted? The problem is not divine silence. The problem is human busyness.

    Go! And Listen: When God Speaks, Do You Listen? INTRODUCTION When God speaks… do you listen? Most people hear noise every day, but very few actually listen. A few years ago, a violinist stood in a busy railway station in Washington D.C., playing exquisite classical music. Nearly 1,100 people ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 28, 2025
     | 188 views

    How well do you listen? How should Christians listen? This message is about a listening discipline, and we need to discipline ourselves in how to listen. Lots of points from life’s observations are shared here. Allied to listening are attitudes of hearing.

    3. THOUGHTS IN 2 PETER - NUMBER THREE - A LISTENING DISCIPLINE - 2 Peter 1:18 “Didn’t you hear what I said?” “Weren’t you listening!” “Pay attention!” - a favourite of teachers.

     | 1,628 views

    We are all called by God to salvation and service, but we must learn to hear and answer His call amidst the interference in our lives.

    Hey! Welcome! We're going to dive into some cool stories about Samuel and David and see what they can teach us about God's call in our lives. A.W. Tozer once said, 'God is looking for people through whom He can do the impossible. What a pity we only plan things we can do ourselves.' So, let's get ...read more
