When we are so tired of the voices in our heads and in our culture, we long to hear the voice of God. Generations come and generations go, but the Word of the Lord endures forever. Learn healthy practices to hear the voice of God in Scripture.

The sermon today is titled "Read Reverently." It is the first installment in our series "Read Well." The Scripture reading is from 1 Samuel 3:1-10 (ESV). Originally preached at the West Side Church of Christ (Searcy, AR) on February 4, 2024. All lessons fit under one of 5 broad categories: Begin, Discover, Grow, Learn, and Serve. This sermon is filed under LEARN: Bible Interpretation.
