"Take Courage! I Am Here!" | Mark 6:45-52 | Matt Carlson

Tim Parlier & Matt Carlson

Welcome to Generation Church! 

Life can feel like an endless battle against the wind and waves—struggles we didn’t ask for, storms we never saw coming. Maybe you’ve wondered, Why would God allow this? Maybe you’ve tried to fight your way through on your own, paddling harder, grasping for control, questioning if Jesus even sees you.

But what if the storm isn’t proof of His absence, but the very place He’s revealing His power?

In Mark 6, the disciples find themselves in deep trouble—rowing hard, making no progress, exhausted, afraid. Then Jesus comes through the storm to meet them. He doesn’t calm the waves first—He walks on them. He doesn’t wait for their fear to subside—He speaks into it: Take courage! I am here!

Step into this story and see that Jesus is more than enough in the storm. More than enough for our fear, our striving, our need. The very winds that threaten to sink us might just be the stage for Him to show us who He really is.
