    Jumping In The Midst Of Storms Series

    Contributed by Jake Kircher on Oct 10, 2006
    based on 5 ratings
     | 4,406 views

    Jesus wants us to cry out to him our deepest thoughts and feelings about what is going on in the world. He will always answer because He is in control.

    There are a lot of people in this world who wake up everyday with thoughts of fear in their minds because of the storms that surround us. The more and more news that floods our lives just builds this constant anxiety and stress; another school shooting, another terrorist attack, another threat. ...read more

    Overcoming Worry Series

    An expository sermon on Matthew,some try to allegorize this passage of calming the storm but in doing so they lose most of its true meaning.

    The Relevance of the Text. How many of you here this morning would consider your faith as something the Lord Jesus would be pleased with? All too often our faith is not something that pleases the Lord. Every one of us here today could probably give a time in our lives when we were in a place ...read more

    To join Jesus in His mission, you must get in the boat. That doesn’t guarantee you will be free from storms, but Christ will see you through to the other side.

    The Storms of Discipleship Matthew 8:23-27 The 200-year-old church was being readied for an anniversary celebration when calamity struck: the bell ringer was called out of town. The church immediately advertised for another. When the replacement arrived, the Pastor took him to the steps leading ...read more

     | 97,361 views

    There is a cost involved with discipleship, in moving from the crowd to the committed.

    The Cost of Discipleship Matthew 8:18-22 What is the cost of discipleship? Jesus urged His followers to count the cost, but have any of us really taken the time to think about the cost of following Jesus, and have we settled in our hearts that we are willing to follow Him, no matter what the ...read more

    Don't Panic

    The disciples panicked, and of course sometimes we do too. However, Jesus may rebuke us! Whatever the situation, he will be in the boat with us, he will be with us, and he will bring peace into the storms of life we face.

    Matthew 8: 23-27 As I was reading this Bible passage through yesterday morning I had a ‘flash-back’ to my child-hood. As I imagined the storm on the lake and the disciples saying, “Lord, save us! We’re going to drown”; some famous words (for a UK audience!) went through my mind: “Don’t panic Mr. ...read more

    In the life of Christ we learn what our relationship to God should mean to us.

    INTRO.- ILL.- A man was driving home from work one evening when he suddenly realized that it was his daughter’s birthday and he hadn’t yet bought her a gift. So, the man rushed off to the nearest toy store and asked the sales clerk, "How much is that Barbie in the window?" The sales clerk ...read more

    [Hurricane Katrina--1 year later.] Jesus and His disciples are on a stormy sea, and we can learn much about our voyage thru life by way of this passage. Link included to formatted MS Word text and PowerPoint Presentation.

    The Storm Before the Calm Matthew 8:23-27 1 year ago this week a powerful storm and devastating surge came to the Gulf Coast.

    It’s simple,really. Jesus calls us to follow Him. Let’s see what that means.

    Passage: Matthew 8:18-22 Intro: As a kid growing up in the church, there were certain songs that seemed dishonest for me to sing. Here was one: 1) “Earthly pleasures vainly call me, I would be like Jesus. Nothing worldly shall enthrall me, I would be like Jesus. Be like Jesus, this my song, in ...read more

    Do you wondering when the boat will stop rocking or if you’ll be swamped and drown if things continue the way they are? There is calm...

    -Ferry crossing from Sydney NS to Port aux Basques, NL. Five hours often on rough seas. My experience one night of being on deck; longed for calm sea, better yet calm spirit so I could sleep. Through a hole in the clouds I saw the North Star. Fixed my eyes on the star. In the storm I found ...read more

    Part 10 - Matthew 8:18-34 - When Jesus Skips Out On Church, You Know Someth Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Mar 3, 2010
    based on 7 ratings
     | 6,124 views

    It's interesting to me that Jesus called His disciples to leave the crowd and His disciples and they experience some spiritual warfare as they cross to the other side of the lake. Why would Jesus miss this opportunity, when He had a crowd gathered?

    Part 10 - Matthew 8:18-34 - WHEN JESUS SKIPS OUT ON CHURCH, YOU KNOW SOMETHING IS WRONG! I remember as a young student Pastor being invited to a Church for afternoon tea. They said they wanted to pray for me. What I didn't realise is that they wanted to pray for me to be their Pastor. At the end ...read more

    based on 25 ratings
     | 15,329 views

    A man comes and wants to follow Jesus, and Jesus gives Him an obscure answer about birds nests and foxes dens and about having no place to sleep! What is He saying? IF I AM TO BE A DISCIPLE (A CHRIST FOLLOWER) I CAN NEVER OWN MY OWN HOME?

    Part 11 - Matthew 8:19-20 - DOES THAT MEAN I CAN’T OWN MY OWN HOME, LORD? Here we go again! Jesus doing something totally unexpected! A man comes and wants to follow Him like the other disciples are following Jesus, and He gives him an obscure answer about birds nests and foxes dens and about ...read more

    Finding faith in the midst of a storm

    Matthew 8: 23-27 23 Then he got into the boat and his disciples followed him. 24 Without warning, a furious storm came up on the lake, so that the waves swept over the boat. But Jesus was sleeping. 25 The disciples went and woke him, saying, “Lord, save us! We’re going to drown!” 26 He replied, ...read more

    Peace In The Midst Of The Storm

    I preached this sermon exactly 26 days after my Mom went to be with the Lord. Read this powerful sermon and experience the peace that Jesus gives even in the midst of a storm! I would be delighted if you could rate this sermon and give brief feedback.

    Introduction: Prior to this passage, we see that Jesus taught few parables to His disciples about the Kingdom of God. Probably for the sake of privacy and relaxation, Jesus proposed a trip across the lake of Galilee. And in this passage, Mark, the Evangelist gives a graphic account of the stilling ...read more

    If you are full of fear you are not full of faith. Without faith it is impossible to please Him...

    Matthew 8:25 Then His disciples came to Him and awoke Him, saying, "Lord, save us! We are perishing!’’ 26. But He said to them, "Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?’’ Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea. And there was a great calm. Jesus has a way of getting right to the point ...read more
