In this episode, we explore the moment God called Samuel as a child during a time of spiritual silence. From 1 Samuel 3, we’re reminded that God’s voice is not limited by age, experience, or position, and that spiritual silence is often the setup for His next move.

This message highlights a powerful truth: availability matters more than ability, and response determines destiny. Like Samuel, we’re invited to respond with openness and obedience, saying, “Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening.”

Scripture: 1 Samuel 3:1–19

Key takeaway: Availability > Ability | Response determines destiny

Have you ever felt like you’re wrestling with God — waiting for blessing, clarity, or breakthrough?

In this episode, Wrestling for Blessing explores the life of Jacob and the mysterious moment where he wrestles with God and refuses to let go until he is blessed. Jacob’s story reminds us that God often meets us not in our strength, but in our struggle.

This message speaks to anyone who feels called by God but doesn’t feel blessed, who is tired of striving and wondering why faith still feels hard. Through Jacob’s journey, we discover that blessing is not something we earn, but something God freely gives, often through seasons that shape and transform us.

Wrestling for Blessing invites you to trust God’s kindness, contend in prayer, and believe that even in the struggle, God is at work rewriting your story.

The Called is a powerful message about faith, obedience, and trusting God when His voice leads us into uncertainty.

At the start of 2026, this message launches a new series exploring moments in Scripture where God calls people by name—twice. In this opening message, we walk with Abraham through the greatest test of his faith: being asked to place the promise on the altar.

Through the story of Abraham and Isaac, we are challenged to trust God even when it doesn’t make sense, to stop struggling and choose surrender, and to believe that God is still the One who provides. Just as Abraham heard his name called, this message invites us to listen for God calling our own name.

Whether God is asking you to lay something down or calling you to pick something up again—dreams, hopes, or ministries you thought were finished—The Called is an invitation to renewed trust, obedience, and resurrection faith.

Watch with an open heart and be encouraged by the God who still calls His people by name.
