Impact, Thursday April 16th

This week Impact will be meeting at a different location. The address is 950 Santa Cruz Ave. in the Fellowship Hall. For a map of the campus visit http://www.mppc.org/ .

We'll be studying 1 Samuel 1-2:11. Here are the questions:

1 Samuel 1:1-28

1.) What are some other examples of women who experienced barrenness in scripture? What do these stories have in common and how do they compare to Hannah? c.f. Genesis 18:1-16, Genesis 25:21, Judges 13:1-31, Luke 1:5-25.

2.) How do you deal with unanswered questions in your life? How do you explain unanswered prayer?

3.) In 1 Sam 1:18 Hannah’s face is no longer downcast. What has happened and why is she no longer sad?


1 Samuel 2:1-11

4.) There are several “songs” in the Bible. How does Hannah’s song compare to Mary’s Song (Luke 1 46-55)

5.) What does it mean “It is not by strength that one prevails” in 1 Sam 2:9. c.f. Zechariah 4:6 Are there examples in your life where you have seen this demonstrated?

Questions by Grant Kim

Maundy Thursday Service at Menlo Park (not Mountain View)

Please note that the prior blog post indicated Impact would meet at Mountain View church location for tonight's Maundy Thursday service. Note that this is incorrect. The details sent via email to the Impact distribution list are correct. Here they are repeated:

We welcome you to join fellow members of Impactin attending the service at the main sanctuary on Santa Cruz Avenue. If you want to sit with the group, meet over at 700 Santa Cruz no later than 7:15 PM. From there we’ll walk over to the main sanctuary to attend the service, which begins at 7:30 PM. Or drive to the main campus and find us inside the church.
