In this conversation, Dr. Michelle Knight joins Dr. Lynn Cohick to dive deep into the story of Hannah, a woman of extraordinary faith navigating profound personal pain. Through a rich exploration of Hannah's narrative in 1 Samuel, they uncover how her desperate prayer and prophetic song reveal God's heart for the vulnerable and His sovereignty over human circumstances. Dr. Knight provides fascinating insights into Hannah's cultural context, her relationship with her husband Elkanah, and her remarkable theological understanding that challenges traditional power structures.
