Sermons

This sermon by Savannah Schatte centers on the story of Jesus Christ walking on water and Peter the Apostle stepping out of the boat in faith. She paints a vivid picture of the disciples struggling in a storm, showing how their fear grows not from the waves, but from losing sight of Jesus. The key turning point comes when Peter shifts his focus from Jesus to the wind and begins to sink, revealing how easily distractions and real-life pressures can pull our attention away from faith. Savannah emphasizes that the story is not ultimately about Peter’s failure, but about who Jesus is—one who comes toward us in the middle of chaos and reaches out to save us. She connects this to our modern lives, where constant noise, anxiety, and the need for control can act like storms that overwhelm us. The sermon highlights that the safest place is not in avoiding risk or retreating to comfort, but in trusting Jesus even in uncertainty. In the end, the message calls listeners to fix their eyes on Jesus, who meets us in our weakness, pulls us out of our sinking, and invites us to trust Him fully.
