A Patient Priest | Pastor Courtney Hall

SCRIPTURE TEXT: 1 Samuel 2:12-17, 22-36   Samuel was a child of promise, born to Hannah, a mother of fervent prayer & patient faith. Through Hannah’s dedication of her child to the Lord all Israel was blessed, for Samuel grew into an anointed prophet & patient priest of the Lord. Samuel’s story begins in the closing era of the Judges, when “everyone did what was right in their own eyes” (Judges 21:25), among corrupt clergy (1 Sam 2:12) who were blind (cf. 1 Sam 3:2) to the best interests of the people & the vision of the Lord. In an age of darkness, God made Samuel a shining light, just as He does for us today (Matt 5:14-16).   SUNDAY SERVICE PREACHER: Lead Pastor Courtney Hall   DATE: July 10, 2022  SERVICE TIME: 10:30 am (PDT) | In-Person & Online*   SERIES: The Samuel Story (Pt. 1)  SERMON: A Patient Priest Sermon Slides
