Pastor Bill Bush · Oct 30, 2023
Using Paul's harrowing shipwreck in Acts 27 as a lens, Pastor Bill shows that the storms of life — personal, national, or global — are not reasons for panic but opportunities to anchor ourselves in faith. Rather than asking "why" things are falling apart, we are called to focus on "who" is with us. Through four anchors — God's presence, God's promise, God's plan, and God's power — believers can remain calm, stay on mission, and trust that God is repositioning them for His purposes even when the ship goes down.
Pastor Daniel Goulding · Sep 15, 2019
Through the story of Jesus calming the storm in Mark 4, Pastor Daniel shows that God sometimes leads His people directly into trials — not to punish them, but to reveal who He truly is and to refine a faith that can endure. Just as gold is purified in a furnace, our faith is tested so that it becomes genuine and trustworthy. The disciples' encounter on the Sea of Galilee, culminating in Jesus commanding the wind and waves to be still, exposes the gap between intellectual belief and a deep, lived trust in who Jesus actually is.
