A Mother Who Put God First: Hannah's Story | Dr. Kevin R. Johnson | Abyssinian Baptist Church

Join Dr. Kevin R. Johnson, Senior Pastor of The Abyssinian Baptist Church in Harlem, as he continues the powerful "God First" sermon series with a special Mother's Day message examining Hannah's extraordinary faith in 1 Samuel 1.

In this moving sermon, Dr. Johnson explores how Hannah's story teaches us to put God first even in our deepest pain and unfulfilled longings. Discover how what looks like provocation can actually be preparation, and how God uses our trials to PUSH us - Pray Until Something Happens.

Sermon Points

🙏 Bring Your PURPOSE to God - Align your purpose with God's greater plan, even when it costs you something precious.
