Contributed by Andrew Moffatt on Mar 1, 2014

Jesus calms the storm on the Lake. This is no ordinary thing, it is extraordinary. How will the disciples react and why did they react the way they did during the storm? From now on how will we react?

The Last Breakfast Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 5, 2021
