Acts 27 is fast paced, action packed and speaks to our deepest needs, fears and desires. The apostle Paul was being shipped to Rome but the journey was imperiled with all the danger of a perfect storm and ends in a dramatic shipwreck. Where was God during the storm? How did God once again show Himself faithful and powerful in this passage? Join Pastor Jim to see what timeless truths this amazing chapter holds for us in our own day and time.
“Peace doesn’t come from finding a lake with no storms; it comes from having Jesus in the boat.”
John Ortberg
“How often we look upon God as our last and feeblest resource! We go to him because we have nowhere else to go. And then we learn that the storms of life have driven us, not upon the rocks, but into the desired haven.”
George MacDonald
“We all understand, when we give our minds carefully to the question, that to be an effective Christian it is not enough to be an individual believer. Inadequate as the fellowship of the Church may be, in many generations, including our own, there is not the slightest chance of Christian vitality without it.”

“Faith is neither credulity, nor gullibility, nor optimism, nor ‘easy believism’; faith looks at God’s character and stands firmly on God’s promises.”
David Prior
