Quiet Doesn't Mean Nothing Is Happening | 1 Samuel 2

Hannah opens the chapter with a song about a God who flips everything upside down — lifting the humble, bringing down the proud. Then the gut punch: the priests of Israel are corrupt, abusing the very position they were given to serve. The leaders are failing. But quietly, in the background, a boy named Samuel is growing in faithfulness. God’s purposes don’t depend on the people supposed to carry them. And here’s the thing — faith isn’t inherited. You can’t ride someone else’s relationship with God. It has to be yours.
