In this powerful exploration of Mark 4:35-41, we're reminded of Jesus calming the storm and the profound lessons it holds for our faith journey. The key message is that while it's natural to feel afraid during life's storms, we must never doubt Christ's care for us. This story beautifully illustrates how our circumstances, no matter how dire, don't negate God's love. We're challenged to hold two truths simultaneously: our pain is real, but so is God's unwavering love. The disciples' question, 'Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?' reveals a common struggle we all face - connecting personal tragedy to heavenly apathy. Yet, we're reminded that Jesus' entire life and sacrifice testify to His deep care for us. This message encourages us to trust in God's love even when we can't see it, fostering a faith that transcends our immediate circumstances.

Have you ever felt like you were going to perish? So did the disciples in Matthew 8:23-27. They were in the thick of a terrible storm, and their small boat was quickly filling up with water. They were surely aware of the miracles that Jesus, asleep in the stern of the boat, had previously performed but here, in this moment, they feared for their own safety. While Jesus challenged them about their lack of faith, we can be comforted to know that he immediately recognized their fear and calmed the storm they were in. He saved them from peril and in doing so, built their faith and confidence in his deity, the One who speaks to the wind and the waves and they obey Him!

Mark 4:35–41 (ESV) - On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, “Let us go across to theother side.” 36 And leaving the crowd, they took him with them in the boat… 37 And a great windstormarose, and the waves were breaking into the boat, so that the boat was already filling. 38 But he was inthe stern, asleep on the cushion. And they woke him and said to him, “Teacher, do you not care thatwe are perishing?” 39 And he awoke and rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” Andthe wind ceased, and there was a great calm. 40 He said to them, “Why are you so afraid? Have youstill no faith?” 41 And they said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obeyhim?”1 - PURPOSE - “Let us go across to the other side.”2 - PROBLEM - And a great windstorm arose (“suddenly”), and the waves were breaking intothe boat, so that the boat was already fillingMark 4:37 (MSG) - A huge storm came up.

Matthew 8:23-27
How many times in the history of the world has some atrocity been committed, and no one was there to speak up about it? Have you ever seen something wrong, and wondered whether or not God wanted you to get involved? Today, Pastor Bill reminds us of God's COMMAND to rescue the perishing. First, we need to save those who are perishing without Christ. But second, there are others we see who are in trouble. God has placed you in a unique position to be a part of His plan to care for every person.

Do you ever find yourself in a situation where you have an opinion about something, but it's just not worth it to say it? Maybe people are arguing about sports, or politics, or something at work. And you're just feeling too “blah” about it to speak up. Who really cares what you have to say, anyway? Today, Pastor Bill shares his powerful testimony about how God gave him something to say. And God has given you that same message. Through your words, someone else's eternity may be changed.

If you watch just about any movie where somebody dies, almost without exception, they end up going to some kind of “good place”. It's an almost universal assumption that we're all pretty nice people and we deserve a nice rest–in–peace. But today, Pastor Bill reminds us of the gospel: ONLY those who trust in Christ for salvation will spend eternity with Him. So, you have an opportunity in this life, that can have eternal consequences. Through God's Truth, you can rescue someone who's perishing.

On this episode of Antioch MFA's LitCit, host Bo Thomas Newman engages in a thought-provoking conversation with author, attorney, and esteemed Antioch faculty member Natashia Deón. Delving into an exploration of Deon's acclaimed novels, Grace and The Perishing, Deon provides unique insights into her professional life as a writer, her activism, her adept juggling of diverse careers and even homeschooling. They also discuss the intricacies of historical fiction, contemplating the elusive nature of time itself. This episode was produced by Ian Rodriguez and mastered by Beth Dewey.
The place where your very earthly quotidian life meets the holy, sovereign, eternal God is at the point of belief. The stakes are high. Perishing is a possibility, but so is eternal life. The object of our belief of course is determinative. The Good news is that amidst all of this belief is possible. It is not out of reach, but likely will stretch us considerably. For today, let us pray, "Lord meet me at belief." For tomorrow, please subscribe and comment.https://youtu.be/WxZsZIsYT3s
Father Brown 86-10-05 (08) The Perishing of the Pendragons
We are challenged by the way Paul uses the word “truth” 3 times in Chapter 2 of his 2nd letter to the Thessalonians. He also uses it 11 times in his letters to Timothy, which we are just about to read. There is not much “truth” spoken today. No one admits anything they say is a lie, but it is a challenging question to ask ourselves ‘Can we really make a positive statement about something which is neither a “lie” nor “the truth”? The tactic of deliberately giving a misleading impression is all too common; some refer to such as ‘half-truths' ! Let's consider some of the points Paul makes. He writes of “those who are perishing because they refused to love the truth and so be saved” [v.10] So ‘truth' is not just something to be spoken – there is a certain “truth” which is something to be loved – and those who do not do this – perish! What is the specific “sense” of the “truth” Paul is referring to here? It is the truth about God and the truth about his ways and the beliefs he is looking for humans to accept and – as a result – then to live their lives in a way that shows they willingly – indeed joyfully – accept this truth as the only meaningful way to live their lives. We are then challenged to understand the character of God when the next 2 verses tell us “therefore God shall send them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness” [v.11,12] Some pull a curtain across their minds as to the character of God; to simply say ‘God is love' is an oversimplification. Those who have pleasure in unrighteousness cannot serve God acceptably. God knows our hearts; we can intellectually know – and say we understand what is true – but do we love that which is true? We may believe God is soon going to make his power known in a very dramatic way! Do we “see” in our hearts that God is being “righteous” in doing this – that God is doing the right thing – because the world deserves this! Verse 13 says we are chosen by God “to be saved through sanctification (holiness) by the Spirit and belief in the truth”. In contrast, when Jesus returns he will “inflict vengeance on all those who do not know God and on those who do not obey the gospel …” [1 v.8] But, oh the wonder and joy for those who do! [1 v9-12] And you?

Why is the church still here on Earth-- Pastor Evans speaks on the mission of the church, and its duty to reach the lost.
As the church, God's spiritual family, we have the responsibility to reach out and rescue those who are spiritually perishing. The Bible reminds us that we can't carry out this mission in our own strength but must rely on God's mighty weapons and His Holy Spirit. Like any rescue effort, we must be prepared, equipped, and anchored in prayer.
