This Old Testament resource combines hands-on activities, a skit, class discussion questions, and colorful, interactive worksheets to help students understand Hannah’s request for a baby, the importance of earnest prayer, the early life of Samuel, Eli’s “worthless” sons (and what the word means in this context), the call of Samuel as a prophet of God (and how his life contrasts with Eli's sons Hophni and Phineas). The lesson concludes with the understanding that Samuel was a faithful prophet of God, but he was a mere shadow of a greater reality: Jesus is the Ultimate Prophet!
