Latest Sermon: “Living In Victory As A Mother”
Discussion Questions:
When you think about the gap between what you expected your life to look like and what it actually looks like right now, where do you feel that gap most? What's one area where life hasn't gone the way you planned
Hannah kept showing up to the house of the Lord year after year, even though that was the very place her pain got reopened. Is there a place, a season, or a rhythm in your life that you've started avoiding because it's become associated with pain? What would it look like to keep showing up anyway?
The sermon drew a contrast between Peninnah and Hannah. Same circumstances, completely different posture. Peninnah had the blessing and used it as a weapon. Hannah had nothing and used her pain as a doorway to God. Honestly, when you're struggling, which posture do you tend toward, and what does that usually look like for you?
Hannah prayed so raw and honestly that the priest thought she was drunk. Most of us have been taught, directly or indirectly, to clean up our prayers before we bring them to God. What would it look like for you to actually pour out your soul to God this week? What's the version of your prayer you haven't let yourself pray yet?
The little robe Hannah made every year is one of the most quietly powerful images in the story: faithful, loving action in a situation that was complicated, painful, and not what she planned. What is the "little robe" in your life right now? What is the small, faithful thing God might be inviting you to keep doing, not because the circumstances are resolved, but because He is still worth showing up for?
