“THE STORM IS INTENTIONAL”

Pastor Tyronne Gross Jr.

Main Text: Mark 4:35–41

Biblical Foundation:

Mark chapter 4 opens with Jesus sitting in a boat teaching the crowds about the Kingdom of God.

Then Jesus closes the Bible study…and opens a real-life exam.

Big Question of the Series:
Does following Jesus actually change how we respond when storms hit our Life?

1. THE STORM WAS NOT AN INTERRUPTION, IT WAS AN ASSIGNMENT

Mark 4:35-37

2. THE STORM EXPOSED WHAT THEY REALLY BELIEVED ABOUT JESUS

Mark 4:38

3. JESUS USED THE STORM TO SHIFT THEIR FAITH AND THEIR VISION

Mark 4:39–41

Final Thought: PUTTING IT INTO PRACTICE

Jesus is not absent from your storm and your storm is not outside of His authority.
