In the holy place at Shiloh, a young boy serves the Lord with a faithful heart while trouble grows all around him. Eli's sons wear the garments of priests, yet their lives are full of sin, and sorrow begins to gather over Eli's house. As darkness and disobedience spread, one child quietly keeps doing what is right, growing in kindness, wisdom, and favor before God.

Then, in the stillness of night, everything changes. A voice calls out in the dark, and the boy rises again and again, thinking it must be Eli.
