Description

When everything falls apart, will you still trust God?

This week on The Cutting Room Floor, Neil and Scott sit down to unpack the message that almost didn't happen, one built in real time around the story of Hannah. From flight cancellations to last-minute rewrites, what emerged was a powerful reminder of humility, sacrifice, and the high calling women carry as image bearers of God. Scott shares what got left on the cutting room floor, including deeper insights into Samuel, the weight of infertility, and how modern lies of self-sufficiency aren't just failing men, they're failing women too.

What are you still trying to control? Maybe it's time to hand it over to God. 

Hosts: Neil Gregory & Scott Nickell

What We Discuss: 

  • What happens when your guest teacher gets stuck in Missouri 
  • How Hannah models humility and strength in the face of hardship 
  • Samuel's birth, his name, and his powerful legacy 
  • Why Eli's sons were worthless and why that contrast matters
  • The deep pain of infertility and the silence of unanswered prayers
  • The cultural lie women are being sold, and why it's not working
  • Why "read the rest of the story" is essential Bible wisdom
  • How casting our cares on God requires humility and practice
  • What it really means to surrender control
