Center Church

Summary
In 1 Samuel 3, Samuel learns to hear God's voice through surrender and obedience, discovering that spiritual growth requires positioning oneself in environments where God speaks and adopting a servant's posture before Him. The sermon calls listeners to reject worldliness, create space for prayer, and develop moral clarity by listening to God's word, with the hope that Christ's redemption enables us to hear God as beloved children rather than as judges.
Highlights
Our job is to prepare the jars. God's job is to bring the oil.
If you want to hear God, posture yourself as a servant. A servant listens and then does what they're told.
God comes where he's wanted and he speaks to those who listen.
