About this journey

A journey is a short, themed path through Scripture, one day at a time: a passage to read, a short reflection, a question to journal on and a prayer.

Start at day 1 and go at your own pace — your progress and private journal are saved on this device and synced if you sign in. A “Beta” tag means a pastor has not reviewed the journey yet.

Hannah: Praying Through Barrenness

Hannah carried the pain of having no children year after year, and was mocked for it in her own home. These seven days walk with her through 1 Samuel 1–2 and the Psalms, honouring her tears, her honest prayer and the God who sees and hears. If you are walking through infertility, please do not carry it alone; talk to people you trust and, where you can, to a doctor.
