Hannah’s Dreamsong

Hannah’s Song, often referred to as The Magnificat of the First Testament, is a collection of Hannah’s utopian dreams. She sings of a world where the bows of the warriors are broken and where God lifts the poor from the ash heap and sits them with princes. This sermon explores Hannah’s life and story, from which her dreams grew, and it follows the flow of Hannah’s dreamsong as it cascaded down through the centuries, inspiring Mary of Nazareth and inspiring us. 

“Hannah’s Dreamsong” was delivered by Tyler Merrill, who is currently in candidacy for Seattle Mennonite Church’s Pastor of Faith Formation position. It also serves in part as Tyler’s self-introduction to the congregation.
