If You Want To Walk On Water, You’ve Got To Get Out Of The Boat
This new John Ortberg study is a six session series that will begin on Sunday September 20th at 9:00 am in the Fireside Room.
This study will be led by Scott Mayfield.
John Orthberg Writes:
I want to invite you to go for a walk.
The Bible records many instances when God asked people to walk with Him. There was the hard walk Abraham took with his son Isaac on the road to Moriah. The liberating walk Moses and the Israelites took through the Red Sea, followed by the frustrating, forty-year walk through the desert. And don’t forget Joshua’s triumphant walk around Jericho. Or the disciples’ illuminating walk to Emmaus. The list goes on.
Perhaps the most unforgettable walk of all was Peter’s walk when he stepped out of a boat one stormy night and walked on the water. When Peter went treading on the waves, I think he was experiencing walking at its finest…
I believe there is some aspect of your life in which God is callilng you to walk with and toward Him. During these six sessions, you will learn the skills essential to water-walking: discerning God’s call, transcending fear, risking faith, managing failure, and trusting God. When you are through, my hope is that you , like Peter, will accept God’s invitation to go for a walk on the water.
Come Join Us In September As We Begin This Walk Together.
