Preparation for Sunday
Read Mark 4:35-41
Today Pastor Lyle will resume his series “Walking With Jesus” by exploring this story where Jesus stilled a dangerous storm. It is important to note that the storm hit the disciples when they were exactly where Jesus asked them to be. This serves as a powerful reminder that walking with God does not promise us immunity from struggles. It does, however, provide assurance of God’s presence no matter what we face.
