03 Walking on Water

How do we walk in faith when we’re not in control of the journey? Leonard Strydom takes Peter’s walk on the water as a picture of faithful obedience in the places where we feel the least prepared. He shows that walking with Jesus is not only about dramatic miracles, but about small acts of courage: sharing the gospel, forgiving when it hurts, and trusting God in the middle of hardship. The Lord is not surprised by the storm, and He does not ask us to carry it alone. This session calls us to keep our eyes on Jesus and to step out even when faith and fear are both present. Will you trust Him there?
