Podcasts about peace in the storm

At the root of much anxiety is the fear that something valuable will be taken away—our possessions, security, plans, or future. In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef reminds believers that true peace cannot be found in what we own, but in the God who owns everything and graciously provides for His people.God does not bless us merely so that we can accumulate more. He desires willing conduits through whom His gifts can flow to others and His Kingdom work can advance. When we recognize that everything we have comes from Him and exists for His glory, fear begins to loosen its grip.Dr. Youssef explains that fear and faith cannot rule the heart at the same time. Jesus taught that worry exposes the places where we struggle to trust God. Yet because God is perfectly loving, faithful, just, and sovereign, His children can rest in His character even when circumstances feel uncertain.Worry focuses on what might be lost. Contentment focuses on what can never be taken away: the presence of God, the promises of Christ, and the glory that awaits His people. As we lose ourselves in obedience and the proclamation of the Gospel, God offers a peace this world cannot manufacture—a peace that remains even in life's fiercest storms.Let us pray.Lord Jesus, I know worry doesn't add anything good to my life, so help me turn from fear and instead exercise faith. Fill me with Your peace. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen. The voice you hear on the MY Devotional podcast is digitally generated with Dr. Youssef's permission. If today's devotional stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don't have to walk through it alone.

Peace in the Storm | Janelle Pearce | Ladies' Breakfast May 2026 by Sovereign Grace Church

On this episode of the In the Room podcast, Josh, Pastor Marco, and Jean discuss Pastor Troy's miniseries The Lighthouse, focusing on biblical prosperity as more than finances and defined as being led on a good path. A sermon clip urges listeners not to make major decisions in a storm and to renew the mind with God's Word rather than acting out of hurt or anger. Jean and Pastor Marco describe what it means to be a lighthouse—rooted, steady, and shining hope to guide others—and share personal examples, including family and the church as sources of light in dark seasons. The conversation highlights meditating on Scripture, taking thoughts captive, and practicing intentional obedience until it becomes natural and joyful, ending with a challenge to read the Bible for 10 minutes each morning and reflect on one verse throughout the day, plus an invitation to surrender or return to Jesus in prayer.

Guest Speaker JJ Routley :: Creekside Church :: Sunday, August 9, 2026 In the life of Jesus we see a peace in spite of the turmoil of the world around Him because of His total dependence on the Father in every situation. Dr. JJ Routley from Emmaus University preaches from the account of Jesus calming a stormy sea in Mark 5:35-41, pointing out that In our own lives, peace is not the absence of trouble but the presence of God in the midst of it. Dr. Routley's message follows an announcement from Heather Derr about Creekside's College Care ministry, and a special update from Matt Deaver on his health and ministry abroad.

Jonah begins with a prophet on the run. God calls Jonah to go to Nineveh, but Jonah heads in the opposite direction, trying to escape both God's command and God's compassion. But the mercy of God is not easily avoided. In this opening week of Waves of Mercy, we will see that even when we run, resist, or rebel, God's mercy still pursues us—not to destroy us, but to bring us back.

Today's message by Ryan Maidwell is taken from Mark 4:35-40 (NIV) and deals with finding peace in the storms that beset us

In this episode of the LifeLines Radio podcast, we interview author and advocate Maureen Pratt about the Peace in the Storm Project, ways to prevent assisted suicide, and the beauty of adoption.

Even in a world filled with anxiety and uncertainty, believers can experience lasting peace by trusting in Jesus through every storm. -- QUESTIONS FOR REFLECTION & DISCUSSION What is a source of anxiety in your life right now, and how might Jesus be inviting you to trust Him with those concerns instead of carrying them alone? Josh emphasized that true peace is found in the presence of Jesus, not in the absence of problems. How have you experienced God's peace during a difficult season, or what makes that truth challenging to believe? The hand illustration highlighted God's peace, presence, prayer, promises, and power. Which of these do you most need to lean into this week, and what is one practical step you can take to do so?

Lavon Beach - Sunday Morning Opening Message

Peace isn't found in a life without problems—it's found under the authority of Christ. In this message, Pastor Dennis reveals that your storm isn't proof God has abandoned you, but an opportunity to trust the One who commands the wind and the waves. Stop seeing chaos as your punishment and start seeing it as your assignment.

Some of the most memorable moments in Jesus' ministry happened near the water. Along the Sea of Galilee, ordinary people encountered Jesus in moments of fear, uncertainty, need, and change. In our summer series, Encounters by the Sea: Meeting Jesus at the Edge of the Waters, we'll discover how Jesus still meets people at the edge of their lives and invites them into hope, healing, and deeper faith.

In Matthew 8:23-27 Jesus was asleep, a storm arose, so the disciples woke Him saying, 'Don't you care, we're going to die! It's the end of the world...' Jesus got up, bound the storm, the winds stopped, the boat was safe, nobody died. When these strong fishermen saw the demonstration of the power that this Man had over the elements, they said, 'What kind of Man do we have in the boat?' Just as Jesus was in the middle of that storm on Galilee, today, wherever, whenever there is a crisis, a tragedy, sickness, sin, fear or pain in your life, Jesus is always there!  'My God is able' 'Jesus Jesus Jesus' & 'Jesus is the one' used by kind permission of Vinesong.

Anxiety is at an all-time high in America. The majority of people in our culture claim to be anxious, with many struggling with crippling anxiety. While we may not always be able to avoid anxious situations, we have a God who promises to never leave us, despite our circumstances. 

The message addresses the reality of anxiety in modern life and offers biblical wisdom for handling it. Drawing from Proverbs and the story of Jesus calming the storm, Will Dyer emphasizes that anxiety is a heavy burden affecting everyone, often intensified by both global and personal concerns. While culture suggests self-reliance or turning to technology and self-help, the sermon argues that true peace comes from trusting in God's character and presence, not our own understanding. Practical steps are provided: name the specific anxieties you face, recognize what you are trying to control, and remember that Jesus is with you in every storm. The message concludes by encouraging listeners to trust in God's goodness and to pray for calm and strength, affirming that they are never alone in their struggles.

Many of us assume that when life gets hard — when the winds pick up and the waves crash in — we must have done something wrong. But Mark 4 tells a different story.Jesus himself looked at his disciples and said, "Let us go to the other side." He gave the invitation. He set the course. And a violent storm still came.The storm wasn't a sign of disobedience — it came in the middle of God's will. In this message, Pastor Brian Johnston reminds us that storms don't always mean we're living in sin. Sometimes they mean we're exactly where God called us to be, and He is right there in the boat with us.

Faith Under Fire - Peace In The Storm Pastor Scott Snyder

Episode 143 of 2 Minute Disciple Season 5 explores the moving story of Jesus calming the storm in Mark 4:35–41. As the disciples panic in the middle of a violent storm, Jesus speaks peace over the wind and waves—and challenges them to trust Him more deeply. In this contemplative Christian devotional podcast episode, Nick guides listeners through a peaceful rhythm of slowing down, reading Scripture, reflecting, meditating, responding in prayer, and practicing a simple spiritual exercise. Together, we wrestle with the disciples' honest question: “Don't You care that we're going to drown?” and Jesus' searching response: “Why are you afraid?” This episode is for anyone carrying anxiety, fear, uncertainty, or emotional exhaustion. It is a reminder that faith is not the absence of fear—but the decision to turn toward Jesus in the middle of the storm. Whether you are beginning your morning devotion, taking a prayerful break in your day, or searching for peace in difficult circumstances, this episode will help you rest in the calming presence of Christ.

When life's storms come crashing down on us, where can we turn? We can turn to the Lord and look for His protection and provision. Join us today as we dive into a wonderful psalm that gives strength and peace in the storms of life. DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS: 1.    Psalm 46 is about finding peace in the midst of major upheaval. Is your world undergoing upheaval? If so, in what way? If a person did not trust God in such a storm, how would they respond? How are you responding differently?  2.    How does verse 1 remind us that when we face difficulties, we can find refuge in God no matter what they are? What does the word "refuge" picture? How is this evident (or not evident) in your own life?  3.    The "present help" in verse 1 speaks of active, real help from the Lord. Where have you seen the Lord help you in your storms?  4.    Why kind of devastation is the psalmist referring to in verses 2 & 3? What might this look like in our lives today?  5.    The "selah" at the end of verse 3 is calling us to pause and reflect on what he's just said. Take a moment and re-read verses 1-3 and summarize what they're saying here: 6.    Verse 4 takes us to a place where there is no storm, no bitterness, no division, or hatred or problems at work, health, etc. Why do we need to remember that such a place exists? According to this psalm, who lives there? How are they being refreshed (in verse 4)? How do we abide "there" even when we live in a fallen world here?  7.    How would a river sustain a city in these ancient times? Was there a river flowing into Jerusalem? In verse 5, why was it important for the people of Israel to know that even through there was no river in Jerusalem, the Lord was her sustenance? In practical terms, what does this principle look like for believers today? 8.    Even though God's grace and peace continues in the storm, in verse 6, what do the nations continue to do as well? Why?  9.    What is the Lord's response to the nations in verse 6? What happens with this response? What principle is the author teaching us here? 10.    According to verse 7, who is with us? What does verse 7 say about the impact His presence has in our lives?  11.    The word "hosts" in verse 7 speaks of armies. What armies does the Lord control? Why is this important for us to remember? 12.    Since verse 7 ends with "selah", how about taking a moment to re-read verses 4-7 and summarizing them here:  13.    Why does verse 8 call us to "behold the works of the Lord"? What works might he be referring to? Why does this strengthen our peace in the midst of a storm?  14.    What does verse 9 show us about the Lord's control over the nations? Why is this important, even when the world around us is the source of our storm?  15.    Verse 10 calls us to "cease striving". This could also be translated as "be still". If we're to be still, who are we trusting to act on our behalf? In your own live, are you more likely to be striving or being still the storms of your life? What would it look like to be still in these storms? What kind of faith and trust in the Lord is required to be still in this way?  16.    Verse 11 repeats the encouragement from verse 7. Why do you think the author repeats himself here?  17.    Verse 11 also ends with "selah". How about taking a moment to re-read and summarize the principles from verses 8-11 here:  18.    In your own life, where do you need the Lord's peace? What principles from this psalm speak to your situation today?  Check out our Bible Study Guide on the Key Chapters of Genesis! Available on Amazon just in time for the Genesis relaunch in January!

Mark 4:35-41

What do you do when the storm doesn't stop—and Jesus seems silent?In this message from Gospel of Mark 4:35–41, we explore how faith is formed not in calm waters, but in real-life storms. Using the backdrop of the awe-inspiring Artemis II journey, this sermon contrasts human limits with the power of the God who speaks over chaos.You'll be invited to wrestle with honest questions: Does Jesus care? Can He actually do anything about what I'm facing? And discover that Jesus doesn't just calm storms - He uses them to reveal what's happening beneath the surface of our hearts.If you've ever felt overwhelmed, anxious, or unsure where God is in your situation, this message will help you move from fear to deeper faith in Jesus.// SCRIPTURE REFERENCES //Mark 4:34-41, Genesis 1:1-2, Psalm 46:10,  More info at the Bible Project: https://bibleproject.com/videos/mark/ // TAKE A NEXT STEP //Want to visit or discover more about Columbia View?

In the midst of chronic illness and suffering, whether we're going through it or we're accompanying a loved one, Bishop Frank Caggiano reminds us that "only God has the full perspective. For me, to be cured is a good... but it may not be the ultimate good." Maureen Pratt has faced down a lifelong chronic illness, and The Peace In The Storm Project was born out of her experiences. She joins Bishop Frank to talk about facing difficulties with faith, the epidemic of loneliness, why Pope Francis gave her a thumbs-up, and more. Maureen will be at St Aloysius in New Canaan on April 16th if you'd like to hear more from her and meet her in person.

Are you in the middle of a storm right now — wondering if God even cares? In this episode of Chasing Happiness, I share what hit me like a ton of bricks on a prayer walk: I realized I didn't have enough faith to believe God would give me peace WHILE I'm in the storm. This is raw. This is real. And it just might change the way you see your struggle.

In many parts of the world, following Jesus can cost believers their freedom—or even their lives. Yet in those very places, people are turning to Christ in extraordinary numbers. Why? Because when everything else collapses, only one refuge holds. In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef anchors your heart in Proverbs 18:10: “The name of the LORD is a fortified tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.” He unpacks what it means to take shelter in the name of the Lord—not as a religious phrase, but as real security in real storms. Dr. Youssef then walks through the rich names of God in Scripture—names that reveal His covenant faithfulness, His provision, His healing, His peace, His righteousness, and His shepherding care. Everything you need is found in who God is. And in the New Testament, that refuge becomes unmistakably personal: Jesus is our Rock—the only safe hiding place when fear rises and circumstances grow bleak. If you've been tempted to trust flimsy “walls” like money, influence, or connections, this devotional calls you to the only defense that never fails: the name of Jesus—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—triple-locked protection for all who are in Christ. Prayer: Lord, I know I can run to You and find shelter and hope that does not disappoint. Help me to trust You as circumstances around me grow bleak. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen. Today's MY Devotional has been provided by Leading The Way. The voice you hear on the MY Devotional podcast is digitally generated with Dr. Youssef's permission. If today's devotional stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don't have to walk through it alone.

When anxiety rises and it feels like Jesus is silent, this message from Mark 4:35–41 invites us to stay present instead of rushing to escape. Through a powerful story, we're reminded that God doesn't waste our pain—there are lessons, growth, and hidden “treasures” we'd miss if we run. What we're trying to get out of, God is often trying to grow us through.

Hope doesn't always look heroic. Sometimes it's a nine-year-old whispering a fearful prayer, a college student lying on the floor searching for sleep, or a friend deciding to make one more call before the dark closes in. We sat down with Author, Podcast Host and Psychology student Andelina Storm to trace how childhood loss led to OCD and anxiety, how depression blindsided her in college, and how faith and practical tools helped her trade control for peace. Her message is simple and hard: put a comma in your story, not a period.Andelina shares the moment a friend's suicide reshaped her path and why she became a Promise To Live ambassador, turning grief into a mission to interrupt the ripple of silence. We unpack the difference between everyday nerves and clinical anxiety, why stigma still lingers even as awareness grows, and how small, repeatable habits create room for breath—sleep rhythms, grounding exercises, community check-ins, sunlight, music, and even the quiet medicine of petting a dog. She explains how she channels obsessive tendencies into useful structure and why depression, more than anxiety, demanded a new playbook.We also explore her debut book, Sanity in the Storm, and her podcast, Peace in the Storm, where she blends scripture with evidence-based coping strategies to meet Gen Z where they are. For skeptics and believers alike, Andelina treats the Bible as durable wisdom for restless minds, pairing it with psychology to build an integrated approach to mental health. You'll hear a moving cameo from her father on the hidden cost families carry—and the fierce pride of watching a daughter choose life, again and again.If you or someone you love is walking through heavy weather, this conversation offers both compass and company.

This week on the Companion Podcast, we're unwrapping one of the most needed gifts of Christmas — peace. Not the kind you get from a quiet moment, a Hallmark movie, or a candle that smells like pine needles, but the kind Jesus offered His disciples in the middle of a storm. Evan, Pastor Jon, and David talk about real peace: the kind that anchors you when your fears are justified, when the boat is actually filling with water, and when life feels more chaotic than Christmas should allow.They explore how the Holy Spirit forms peace in us, why temporary fixes fall short, how pride keeps us holding the string of our anxieties, and how humility opens us to the peace Jesus gives.If your life feels more like a storm than a snow globe, this episode is for you.

Every mother knows what it's like to stand in a storm — the kind that isn't just outside, but inside. Maybe your son is struggling, your faith feels thin, or the future feels uncertain. Today's devotion reminds you that peace isn't found when life is perfect; it's found when your eyes are fixed on the One who is.1️⃣ Peace Is Not the Absence of the StormJesus didn't wait for the weather to settle — He spoke into the chaos. True peace begins when we recognize that God's presence is bigger than our pressure.2️⃣ Focus Determines FeelingsIn the boat, the disciples saw the waves. Jesus saw the Father. What we focus on grows — fear or faith. Peace starts by shifting our gaze from the storm to the Savior. 3️⃣ Faith Doesn't Silence the Wind — It Silences the FearThe storm may not end instantly, but faith changes your reaction. When you invite God's Word into your worry, anxiety loses its authority.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/warfare-prayers-podcast-daily-prayer-devotionals-deliverance-daily-scripture-spiritual-warfare--5866282/support.
