 BIBLE STORY: ABRAHAM AND ISAAC (Genesis 22:1-19) "A Test of Faith"  The morning air was crisp, carrying with it the scent of dew-drenched earth and the distant murmur of grazing sheep. The sun had barely risen when Abraham stirred from his tent, his heart heavy with the weight of an unthinkable command. The voice of God had come to him in the stillness of the night: "Take your son, your only son, whom you love—Isaac—and go to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on a mountain I will show you." The words echoed in his mind like a haunting refrain. Isaac—the long-awaited promise, the child of his old age.

He glanced toward the tent where Sarah still slept, unaware. He could not bear to wake her, to see the questions in her eyes—questions he himself could not answ...

BIBLE STORY: HANNAH'S PRAYER FOR A SON (1 Samuel 1) "A Story of Faith and Triumph"  The sun was setting over the hills of Ramah, casting a golden glow on the stone walls of Elkanah’s home.

Laughter rang through the house, but in one dimly lit corner sat Hannah, silent, her heart heavy with sorrow. She pressed a trembling hand to her chest, swallowing the lump in her throat. Across the room, Peninnah, Elkanah’s other wife, smirked. Her children gathered around her, giggling and playful, a constant reminder of what Hannah lacked. “Look at my little ones,” Peninnah said loudly, feeding her youngest son. “How blessed I am! Some women… well, they are not so fortunate.” Hannah clenched her jaw, willing herself not to cry. The pain of her barrenness was unbearable. She had prayed for years, pleading with God for a child, but her womb remained empty. Though Elk...

For twenty long years, they had suffered under the cruel hand of King Jabin of Canaan. His commander, Sisera, led an army of iron—nine hundred chariots strong—bringing terror to the land.
