Summary

Jesus said, “My sheep hear My voice.” One of the most essential skills we can cultivate is knowing God’s voice and listening to Him. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the choice each generation has to align with God and learn to listen. Pastor Allen teaches from the book of 1 Samuel, where he shares lessons in topics like parenting, thankfulness, listening, and rejection. He gives us five steps we can begin to implement today to grow our listening skills, and we learn from the people of Israel the importance of joy over complaining. We each have a choice to make. Will we choose to know God?
