Big John's Faith

Big John's Faith, Seminarian Michelle Freeman, preacher.

Preached Father's Day, June 21, 2009.
Approximately 29 minutes duration. Key Scripture: Mark 4:35-41


On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, “Let us go across to the other side.” And leaving the crowd behind, they took him with them in the boat, just as he was. Other boats were with him. A great windstorm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that the boat was already being swamped. But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke him up and rebuked the wind, and said the sea, “Peace! Be Still!” Then the wind ceased, and there was a dead calm. He said to them, “Why are you afraid? Have you still no faith?” And they were filled with great awe and said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?”

Sermon Theme: Faith/Faithfulness

Sermon Outline

Sunday is the third Sunday after Pentecost, the 12th Sunday in Ordinary Time and Proper 7. It is also Father’s Day. In the scripture passage Jesus is asleep in the boat when the disciples wake him during a wind storm. Jesus wakes up, calms the storm and asks them where is their faith. I intend to explain this scripture passage to the audience as well as relate some personal examples of how my faith in God has carried me through the most difficult times in my life. I will also honor my father by relating briefly how he had the faith of a mustard seed (Matthew 17:20) to overcome a lot of obstacles in his life. Faith is a guiding force in my personal spiritual journey with Christ and has also guided my 13-year relationship with my life partner Georgia. We have “stepped out in faith” on a number of occasions when most people would have retreated and not taken a chance.
