Stilling the Storm (Part 1)

The Life and Teachings of Christ
The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg

In this discussion, Steve Gregg talks about the story of Jesus stilling the storm in Mark chapter 4. He explains that this story is not just about Jesus being a miracle worker, but also about him being the Lord who stills the storms. Gregg draws parallels between this story and Psalm 107, which speaks of Jehovah stilling the storm. He further suggests that the disciples' fear during the storm may have arisen from underestimating Jesus' power as Messiah, and comments on the importance of faith when waiting for deliverance.
