Mark 4:35-41 is a very familiar narrative. After spending a grueling day debating with scribes and teaching in parables, Jesus tells his disciples to take Him across the Sea of Galilee. He sleeps as a deadly storm hits and wakes to calm it by His word. Having just compared the word to the seed that brings the kingdom, Jesus demonstrates the power of that word as He commands the storm to be silent. While it is certainly true that God sometimes miraculously intervenes and calms the storms of this life, the main point of this passage is who Jesus is. Mark previously narrated four miracles that demonstrate Jesus' authority over unclean spirits, sickness, and the forgiveness of sin. Now, after Jesus' kingdom parables, Mark will give us four more miracles. Jesus will calm the storm (forces of nature), cast out a legion of demons, cure a woman with a chronic condition, and raise Jairus' daughter from the dead. These four miracles, which would seem to be on a grander scale, reveal more of Jesus' identity and authority. He is God in the flesh. Only God can still the wind and waves. Yet, Jesus calming every storm in your earthly life is not the point. Jesus undoubtedly knew they would sail into a storm when He commanded them to sail across the sea. The storm tested their faith and revealed what they trusted in. When Jesus wakes, He rebukes them, saying, "Why are you so afraid? Have you still no faith?" (v. 40) They were in far more danger from their fear and unbelief than from the storm. Their fear of the storm caused them to wonder if Jesus even cared (v. 38). This narrative is framed around three questions that could apply to every Christian's life in this world. These questions call for answers that speak to our trials, sufferings, battles against sin, and things of the world. If Jesus is truly who He says He is, "Why are you so afraid?" The battle in this narrative is not simply a fight for survival on a stormy sea or expecting Jesus to calm our storms whenever we call. The battle, even in the fiercest storm, is answering, " Who then is this?"(v. 41) And trusting the one who is with us in the boat. I. Setting: An Inevitable Storm (v. 35-37) II. Do You Not Care? (v. 38) III. Why Are You So Afraid? (v. 39-40) IV. Who Then Is This? (v. 41)

In this episode I chat about fear and how it blocks us from really doing what we are called to do within our business. Social media is both a blessing and a curse, but we can choose to use it as a blessing within our business. Follow me @iamelizabethkrause on Instagram!

Most would agree that 2020 was a year of fear!! Between the unknown of a pandemic, an intensely contested polarized presidential election, and economic strain on individuals and most small business owners... Just to mention a few things. Has this been your experience? Today in Mark 4, Jesus will challenge us with the same question He presented to his disciples. WHY ARE YOU SO AFRAID??? Are you ready!
